moft, or he can never be faid to gallop jujl and true. — I 

 underftand by an cveji or equal Gallop, that in which the 

 Hind-parts follow a id accompany the Fore-parts ; as for Ex- 

 ample — If a Horfe gallops, or leads with his Right-leg before, 

 the Hind Right-leg ought to follow ; for if the Left Hind- 

 leg were to follow, the Horfe would then be difunited : The 

 Jufinefs then of the Gallop depends upon the Adlion of the 

 Fore- feet, as the Union orEvennefs of it does on the Hind-feet. 



This general Rule which fixes the Juftnefs of the Gallop, 



that is to fay, this Principle which obHges the Horfe to lead 



with the Right Fore-foot when he gallops, flrid as it is, yet 



fometimes parts with its Privileges in deference to the Laws 



of the Manage. — The Defign of this School is to make equally 



fupple and adlive all the Limbs of a Horfe. — It is not re- 



quifite then that the Horfe fhould lead always with the fame 



Leg, becaufe it is abfolutely neceffary that he fhould be 



equally ready and fupple with both his Shoulders, in order 



to work properly upon the different Airs. — It feems but rea- 



fonable that this Rule fliould be obferved likewife out of the 



Manage ; and therefore it has of late obtain'd that Hunting- 



horfes fhould lead indifferently with both Legs ; becaufe it 



has been found on Trial, that by ftridly adhering to the 



Rule of never fuffering a Horfe to gallop but with his Right 



Fore-leg, he has been quite ruin'd and worn out on one 



Side, when he was quite frefh and found on the other. — 



Be that as it will, it is not lefs certain, that in the Manage 



a Horfe may gallop falfe, either in going ftrait forward, or 



in going round, or upon a Circle ; for inftance — He is 



going ftrait, and to the Right-hand, and fets off with the
