And thusfomeareto be driuen in the latter part of Virgil 
when they hauc done breedings v . and Tome in Aquarius or 
Pifces, before they begin to breed againe.-v.c.4.w.i 2. 
In Virgo fuch ftalls onely are to be driuen, as are fit to bee 
killed: v. and that into yeerlings or two-ycerlings , which 
thatyeere haue caft twice, and therefore haue few Bees leafe 
in them ; but yet haue Home enough. The manner of it 
is this. Hauing firft placed thefe two ftalls, th c%emouer that 
is driuen and the Receiuer, as neereas maybe one to another, 
and fo letthemftand together fixorfeuendaies, till they be 
well acquainted with their ftandings j when you fee the 
weather faire andconftant, late inaneuening , about ten i 
clocke, fet the Remouer faft on the grouiffl in a Brake, v. with 
his bottome vp ward, and the /?<w/#i?rvpon:and binde them 
clofe together, as in the former driuing. And chen,by often 
clapping the Tkenwuer betweene your hands about the fpacc 
of a quarter of an houre (now and then pawling betweene) 
hauing driuen moft of the Bees into the Receiuer, and fo 
mingled them all togetherjletthem fo ftand til the mornings 
In the morning about Sun-rrfing, if the weather bee faire; 
(other wife you muftftay * longer)doc the like: hauing firft 
ftmt and couered the other ftalls. v.c. 
* If the weather fit not the next day, you may fafc!yft3y till it doe fit; 
fo that no Bees get forth in the meane Qsace. 
This done, fet the Receiuer vpon the Remouer s ftooles , 
B VT, be hire to bolfter him vp with three Tile- fhards , that 
the driuen Bees may eafily get into the Hiue on euery fide. 
And then knocke th t Remouer downe vpon a Tabletwo or 
three foot fquare, fee clofe to the forepart of theftoole:and, 
by clapping of the Hiue, prefently get as many of the Bees, 
forth as you can. And forthwith carry the 'Remouer about a 
Pearch from the ftoole : and there laying him downe, fo that 
the Combes may lie edgelong , after a little while clap him 
twice or thrice, which will make many of the Bees to fiy 
forth. Then remoue him to another place about the former I 
diftanee, and there doe likewife : and fo to another, and an 1
