OF THE TERRE-A-TERRE. 



Section I. — Of the Terre-a-terre in general 



Galloping a Terre-a-terre, is the galloping 

 sideways, with the head to the wall or other- 

 wise. 



The position of the horse in galloping a 

 Terre-a-terre, is the same as working the 

 lesson of head to the wall; and the only 

 difference is, that the legs are lifted in the 

 action of the gallop, and mark four beats, 

 rather quicker than the gallop ; because the 

 horse is more together, the feet measure less 

 space, and the hind legs follow the fore 

 more rapidly.
