In Ringing Half-pulls some Peals do cut Compass, that
is--the whole _hunt_ comes to lead at the Back-stroke,
to remedy which, make the first change of the Peal at
the Back-stroke.
By these following Rules, you shall know what Peals do
cut Compass, and what not (i.e.) of plain and single
changes. _On six Bells_,
In hunting either the treble, the third, or the fifth bells
down, cuts Compass; hunting them up, does not cut Compass.
In hunting the second, fourth, or sixth bells up, cuts
Compass; but hunting them down, does not cut Compass.
These Rules (leaving out the Tenor) serves for five
bells; and leaving out the fifth and Tenor, they serve
for four bells.
The
Twelve score LONG HUNTS:
Or the
ESQUIRE'S Twelve-score.
This Peal is to be Rang on six bells, having two whole
_hunts_, and one half _hunt_; the common way of Ringing,
it is to make the fifth and Tenor the whole _hunts_, and
the Treble the half _hunt_. The Tenor and fifth does each
_hunt_ down by turns, and when either of them comes down
before the bells, it leads twice, and then _hunts_ up again.
The Treble, second, third, and fourth, makes the Twenty-four
changes, one of which is made every time either of the whole
_hunts_ leads: For instance, the Tenor is first to be _hunted_
down, thus.--

bells, there is one change in the Twenty-four now to
be made between treble and second, thus.--
