_Manchet_ cut into square bits, thrice a day, and with the Coldest, and
Sweetest Spring-water that can be had. And after you think by this time
he is throughly purged of his _Corn_, _Worms_, _Gravel_, and other
course Feeding, take him in the Morning out of the Pen, and let him
_Sparr_ with another _Cock_ some time to heat and chafe their Bodies,
break Fat and Glut, and fit them for Purgation; first having covered
their Spurs with Hots of Leather, to hinder their Wounding and drawing
Blood of one another.

After they have sufficiently _Sparred_, that they pant again, take them
up, and remove their Hots, and prepare them for a Sweating Bout thus:
Take _Butter_, and _Rosemary_, finely chopt, and _White-sugar-candy_,
mixt together; and give them the quantity of a _Wallnut_; which will
Scower, strengthen, and prolong Breath: Then having (purposely) deep
_Straw Baskets_, fill them half way with _Straw_, put in your _Cock_,
and cover him with _Straw_ to the top; lay the lid close, and let him
stove till the Evening. At Five a Clock take him out, and lick his Head
and Eyes with your Tongue, then Pen him, and fill his Trough with
_Manchet_ and hot _Urine_.

After this, take a Gallon of _Wheat_, and _Oatmeal-flower_, and with
_Ale_, half a score _Whites_ of _Eggs_, and _Butter_, work it into a
stiff _Past_; bake it into broad _Cakes_, and when four days Old, cut it
into square Bits.

The Second day after _Sparring_, bring your _Cock_ into a Green-close,
and shew him in your Arms a _Dung-hill-cock_, then run from him, and
allure him thus to follow, suffering him now and then to strike the
_Dung-hill-Cock_, and so Chase him up and down for half an Hour, till he
pants again; and thus Heated, carry him home, and scour him with half a
Pound of _Fresh-butter_, beaten with the Leaves of the _Herb of Grace_,
_Hysop_, and _Rosemary_, to the consistence of a _Salve_, and give him
the quantity of a _Wallnut_; then _Stove_, and _Feed_ him as above. And
thus for the first Fortnight, Spar or Chase him every other day.

The second Fortnight, twice a Week will be enough to Chase or Spar your
_Cock_: Observing that you Stove and Scour him, proportionable to his
Heating.

The third and last Fortnight (for six Weeks is long enough) feed him as
before, but do not Spar him, but Chase him moderately twice, or thrice,
as before; then roll his aforesaid scouring in _Brown-sugar-candy_, to
prevent his being Sick; rest him four days, and
