When a Goshawke will not flee at all.
FOrasmuch as the Goshawks which are takē in Septem∣ber or October, doe not know their prey so well as they which are taken later, since they haue not preyed so long as those old, it hapneth many times that when they are made to the fist, and brought euen to the point to flée, if you let them flée at a Partridge, they take a trée and will not flée at all. To redresse that, you shall goe into a plaine fielde where are no trées, with a quicke Partridge, the which you shall giue to some of your company, your selfe shall ride vp and down half an houre with your Hawke vpon your fist vnhooded: & then drawing near to your companion which hath the Partridge, when you come within ten or twelue paces of him, let him pri∣uily cast out the Partridge, and let your Hawke flée at it: which done, reward and féed her wel thereupon. If peraduen∣ture your Goshawke haue néed of more such trains, then you may continue it thrée or foure times, vntil shée be well in blood
