for that is the common Phrase amongst _Ringers_)
whereby 'tis alwayes to be observed, that the first Bell which
is named, is the _whole Hunt_, and the second that is named, is
the _half Hunt_, as herein you may perceive; where _Second_ down,
is meant, that the _Second_ Bell is the _whole Hunt_, and to
_hunt_ down the first _Change_; and the _Fourth_ Bell is the
_half Hunt_, and to _half hunt_ up, that is, to move up towards
the hindmost Bell the first time it moves at the beginning of the
_Peal_; which are only directions in making the first _Changes_,
for one _whole Hunt_ and _half Hunt_ may be hunted several wayes,
either up or down at pleasure. First, I _hunt_ down the _Second_.--

The _Second_ being _hunted_ down, the _Fourth_, which is
the _half Hunt_, must be removed up over one Bell, thus.--

The _half Hunt_ being removed, I must _hunt_ up the
_Second_, as in these _Changes_.--

Now the _Fourth_, which is the _half Hunt_, being behind
the _Extream_ Bells, the next is to be an _Extream Change_,
which may be made either between the two farthest Bells
from the _half Hunt_, or the two nearest to it; and after
the _Extream Change_ is made, the _whole Hunt_ and _half
Hunt_ must be _hunted_ as before. These _Six-score Changes_
of _Second_ and _Fourth_, I have set down at large, at the
end of my directions to these _Changes_ on five Bells.
In every _Six-score_, the _Extream Changes_ may be made
either between the two farthest _Extream_ Bells from the
_half Hunt_, or between the two nearest to it, observing
to make all the _Extreams_ in one _Six-score_ al
