"iS The hoohe of Hunting 



onely one comming in, whereby he might be come from the 

 fprings or feedes, then muft he let his houndes draw hardly, and 

 if it be pollible, let him drawe euen to the Hartes layre or har- 

 bour, for he maye well thinke that thofe pathes or trackes will 

 brin? him to it. And in this manner huntefmen fliould harbour 

 their Deare, but not as many huntefmen do now adayes. For if 

 they can not quickly come to the harbour of an Harte, they then 

 will foyle the gappes, fo to make him harbour, which is often- 

 times a caufe that they finde nothing in their circuites or walks. 

 And fome againe do trull altogether in their hound. And when 

 they finde the Slotte of an Hart, they will onely plaflie or brufe fome 

 bough at entrie of the thicket, and then go vnder the wind, and if 

 their houndes do winde any thing, then they neuer call about, 

 but truft fo vnto their houndes winding of it. Such men 

 trull more in their hounde, than to their owne 

 eyes. And me thinkes a good huntefman 

 fliould neuer greatly elleeme a hounde 

 which hangeth altogether vpon 

 winding aloft : for he neuer 

 putteth his nofe to the 

 grounde, and therefore 

 doth oftentimes 

 begile his 

 maifler.
