VVE Herbor and Unherbor a Harte, & he lieth in his layre:* 1.1 we lodge & rowse a Bucke, & he lieth also in his layre: we seeke and finde the Rowe and he beddeth: we forme and starte a Hare: we burrowe and bolt a Conie, and both the Hare and Conie do sit and squat. We couch & reare a Bore: we ken∣nell and vnkenell a Fox: we earth and digge a Badgerd: we tree and baye both Martern and wild catte: we watch and vent an Otter. And we trayne and rayse the Wolfe, when we bring them to their restyng place and put them from the same to be hunted. Of the Raynedeare, Bote, or Beare, I haue neither read nor herd the termes in this respect.
