Whole Hunt and half Hunt hunted down, and quarter Hunt up.
Whole Hunt hunted down, half Hunt and quarter Hunt hunted up.
Which is a general Rule to Ring the 720 six wayes on any one
of the Six-score Hunts; each of which six wayes, may be Rang
two wayes more, by altering the _Extream Changes_, one of which
is to make the _Extream Changes_ between the two next _Extream
Bells_ to the quarter Hunt, and the other way is to make the
_Extreams_ between the two farthest _Extream_ Bells from it.
The 720 Changes are to be Rang 12 wayes with one whole Hunt,
half Hunt, and quarter Hunt; so that with the Six-score Hunts,
it is to be Rang Six-score times twelve wayes, which makes
One thousand four hundred and forty several wayes to Ring
this 720 plain Changes.
In the 720, the half Hunt, the quarter Hunt, and the three
_Extream_ Bells, makes the Six-score Changes on 5 Bells
in a perfect course, the half Hunt and quarter hunt in the
720, being the whole Hunt and half Hunt in the Six-score;
for Example, take the 23456, and set down the Six-score
Changes on them, making the second the whole hunt, and
the third the half hunt; which when you have set down,
then take the Treble, and hunt it through every Change of
that Six-score, and it will make 720 Changes, the same with
those which I have set down before, The Twenty-four Changes
on four Bells, and the six changes on three Bells, have
also a perfect course in the 720, in the same manner as I
told you they had in the Six-scores on five Bells. There
is always one change in the Six-score made every time the
whole hunt comes before or behind the bells, which is every
sixth change; and there's one change of the Twenty-four
made, every time the whole hunt and half hunt comes before
or behind the bells, which is once in thirty changes; and
one change of the six made every extream, that is once in
six-score changes. You may take the six-score changes on
five bells, treble the whole, and second the half hunt,
before set down; and hunt the sixth bell through every
change of that six score, which will make the 720 changes;
Tenor the whole hunt, Treble the half hunt, and Second the
quarter hunt.
This is not material for a Learner to know, it being only
for the instructions of those that know how to Ring it,
but yet are ignorant of the true grounds thereof; therefore
I have dissected it, and shewed the grounds of each part
of it.
In this place, I will add a word or
