meant, that the treble and second are to move up towards the hindmost Bell, the first time each removes at the beginning of the Peal; and the third being the quarter _hunt_, is to move down the first time, which are only directions for moving the _hunts_ at first, because they may be hunted either up or down. Sometimes it happens, that the _hunts_ cannot be hunted that way which is proposed, as in the 720, treble, second and third all down.-- 123456 The whole _hunt_ which is the treble, should now be hunted down; but it being already before the Bells, insomuch that it can be removed no lower; I should therefore remove the half _hunt_ down, but that being also down as low as it can go, I should move the quarter _hunt_; and that being also down before the Extream Bells, I can move it no lower, unless I should move it down under the second, which is the half _hunt_, which must not be done; for when the quarter _hunt_ is down next before the _Extream Bell_, it must be removed no lower; and when it is up next behind _Extream Bell_, it is to be removed up no higher; therefore it being now before the _Extream Bell_, the _Extream Change_ is to be made the first of all; and when that is done, the treble, second and third must be hunted up in course. Or if you make treble and second down, and third up, then the first Change is to be made, by moving the quarter _Hunt_ up over one _Bell_. And again, if you make Treble and Tenor both up, and Third down, first hunt up the Treble, and then the Tenor, which is the half _Hunt_, should be moved up; but it being already behind, the quarter _Hunt_, which is the Third, must move under one _Bell_, and then the whole _Hunt_ and half are to hunt in course after each other: Many Examples of this Nature I could set down, which for brevity sake I omit. I might demonstrate how the 720 are to be Rang twelve wayes, with each of the Six-score Hunts, as I did that of treble, second and third; but I think that altogether needless, since that Example makes it most plain and easie to be understood: But I will give a general Rule for hunting any whole Hunt, half Hunt, and quarter Hunt, so as to produce six several wayes to Ring the 720 Changes, which is this: Whole Hunt, half Hunt, and quarter Hunt, all hunted up. Whole Hunt, and half Hunt hunted up, and quarter Hunt down. Whole Hunt hunted up, half Hunt and quarter Hunt down. Whole Hunt, half Hunt, and quarter Hunt hu
