PRINCIPLES OP 



P. IX. 



if you are on business, and in a hurry, dash 

 up the bank without hesitation; for should 

 you take the other side, and your horse shy 

 at the carriage, you may be carried many 

 hundred yards out of your road ; whereas by 

 a little effort of courage, you need only graze 

 the wheel, fly up the bank, and by slipping 

 or tumbling down into the road again, go 

 little or nothing out of your way."
