IF thou wilt Hunt, be sure let it be with all the innocent Diversion imaginable: For, what occasion hast thou to Curse thy Horse, because thy Game out runs him? Or thy Game, because it endeavours to escape thee with its Life? Surely thou art asleep when thou dost so; and, no Wonder if thou art taken Napping, when thy Horse is Leaping a Hedge, or Style, by the common Hunt, who is at the Back of every one, to catch'em when they fall. Let this be thy Rule in all thy Recreation, and thou wilt Discern him plain enough to Shun him. Besides, when thou art about a Jour∣ney, or Some other Sporting Exercise of Body, form an Idea, of its Nature, and Quality; thereby no Mischief shall ensue, nor will thy Senses be Stupify'd with the Fatiegues thereof. Farther, let this Consi∣deration rouse my young Schollar out of that Lethargy of childish Pleasures, which terminate in Affliction: So he shall have true Pleasure and Delight in his Satchel, the Love of his Superiors, and escape the Epidemical Consequents of Excess and Wantonness; when the impure Child, shall be devour'd by the Jaws of Satan, and Weep when 'tis too late.
