Walk him along the Side of the Wall in a fteady even Pace, 

 fupporting and keeping him light in the Hand, in order to 

 fliew him the Length of the PafTade, and the Roundnefs of 

 the Volte or Demi-volte^ which he is to make at the End of 

 each Line. — Stop at the End, and when he has finifli'd the 

 lafl: Time of the Stop raife him, and let him make two or 

 three Pefades. After this make a Demivolte of two Lines 

 in the Walk ; and while he is turning, and the Moment you 

 have clos'd it, demand again of him two or three Pefades, 

 and then let him walk on in order to make as many to the 

 other Hand. 



Paffade to the Left. 



You muft take care to confirm him well in this Leflbn. — 

 From the Walk you will put him to the Trot upon a ftrait 

 Line ; from the Trot to a flow Gallop, from that to a fwifter ; 

 being thus led on by degrees, and ftep by ftep, he will be 

 able to furnifh all forts of Pafiades, and to make the Demi- 

 volte in any Air that you have taught him. 



You fhould never put your Horfe to make a Volte or 

 Demi-volte at the time that he is difunited, pulls, or is heavy 

 in the Hand, or is upon his Shoulders ; on the contrary, you 

 fhould flop him at once, and make him go backward till you 

 perceive that he is regulated and united upon his Haunches, 

 light before^ and has taken a good and jufl: Apuy.
