If they be to busie before they finde the Sent good, we say They Bawle. If they be to busie after they finde good Sent, we say They Bable. If they run it endwayes or∣derly and make it good, then when they holde in togethers me∣rily, we say They are in crie. When they are earnest eyther in the chace or in the earth, we say They yearne. When they open in the string (or a Greyhounde in his course) we say They lapyse. When they hang behinde and beate too muche on one Sent or place, we say They plodde. And when they haue eyther earthed a vermine, or brought a Deare, Bore, or suche lyke, to turne head agaynst them, then we say They Baye.
