The termes of a Deares head, and such like beastes of Venerie.
THe rounde roll of •…•…led horne that is next to the head of* 1.1 an Harte is called the Burre, the mayne horne is called the Beame, the lowest Antliere is called The Brow Antliere, or Beas antlier, the next Royall, the nexte aboue that Surryall, and then the Toppe. In a Bucke we say, Burre, Beame, Branche, Aduauncers, Pawlme, and Spelers. A Gotes hornes are not termed by any dif∣ference, sauing that there are certaine wreathes and wrinkles a∣bout them, whereby his age is knowen, as hath bene sayde be∣fore. The Bores teeth are to be called his Tuskes or his gar•…•…s
and that is all the proper woordes or termes that euer I heard or redde thereof. Note that when you speake of a Harts hornes, you must terme them the Head and not the Hornes of a Harte. And lykewise of a Bucke: but a Rowes Hornes, and a Gotes Hòrnes are tollerable termes in Uenerie.
