_Bars_: Let all the six Notes be Sung over again in order, and so proceed distinctly to try at the Parts themselves. The Second Example. [Illustration: Music] You having now gone over the former Examples, must proceed by the same clue of Six Notes to descend three Gradations or Steps lower, _viz._ to _G._ which is to the Second Note of the first six, an _Octave_ or Eighth. First then, in the first _Bar_ you must begin with a high pitch in your Voice, and so having Sung, as in the former Examples, _La_, _G_, _Fa_, _Le_, _D_, _Ce_, leave out _La_, and only Sing the Five last: Then repeat only three in the Second Bar, _viz._ the three last _La_, _D_, _Ce_, calling them now not by those names, but by that of _One_, _Two_, _Three_, and though the names are altered, you must not alter the Tune or Tone. Having thus proceeded, observe in the third Bar to Sing the Six Notes from _Le_, to _G_, naming them as the Bells _One_, _Two_, _Three_, _Four_, _Five_, _Six_; In such a manner, that the three first of these be in Tune, the same with the three last of the former Six; after, as I said, you have Sung them as the Bells, _viz._ _One_, _Two_, _Three_, _Four_, _Five_, at least four or five times, then as often Sing them again by their proper Names, _viz._ _Le_, _D_, _Ce_, _B_, _La_, _G_. Observe again, that in the fourth Bar you Sing the four first Notes, _La_, _D_, _Ce_, _B_, about four times over; after that repeat _Ce_, _B_, by themselves taking good notice of their distance or differences, which is a _Semitone_ like to _Fa_, _Le_ above, _&c._ Consider once more, as to this Example, as to the fifth Bar after all the six are Sung by you, repeat the last four, _viz._ _Ce_, _B_, _La_, _G_, do it often over, keeping them up in the same Tone they had in all six, by which means _Ce_ and _B_ will be distant half a Note, whereupon Sing them backward, _viz._ _G_, _La_, _B_, _Ce_, and at the end repeat _D Ce_, as you did _Le Fa_ at the thirteenth Bar before set down. [Illustration: Music] Observe further now in these Six Bars, that when you have Sung all six in order, Sing the three first _Le_, _D_, _Ce_, and there stop; then proceed to Sing those three over again in the same Tune, nor calling them _Le_, _D_, _Ce_, but _Three_, _Four_, _Five_; do it several times, and so proceed to the Seventh Bar, adding two Notes above, and Sing them on the five Bells, _viz._ _One_, _Two_, _Three_, _Four_, _Five_, three or four times;
