thout Intermission, except an
hinderence comes by the _Treble_; as likewise between two Bells, until
_Treble_ parts the Fray. The _Bobs_ are _Triple Changes_, as the
_Treble_ leads; in the _1st._ _2d._ and _6th._ the Bell in the _4th._
place lies still at the _Bobs_, and in the _3d._ _4th._ and _5th._ that
in the _2d._ place lies still.
Each of these will go 112 Changes, and by making _Bobs_ 224, 336, or
672.
College Triples Dodging both before and behind.
This Peal is the same for _Bobs_, as the _Bob Major_, and will go as
many Changes by making _Bobs_, or otherwise, as any of the foregoing
Four, and is thus Peal'd.

The Explanation shall follow the Peal; intending here to put an end to
my _Epitome_ of the _Art of Ringing_, and therefore shall first present
you with this Prick't thus.

In this Change the 4th. Bell must first hunt up into the Sevenths place,
and then the 4 and 8 always dodge behind throughout the Peal, unless
when obstructed by the _Treble_. The Bell that moves up into the 6th.
place, when the _Treble_ moves thence down, lies still there, till
displaced by the _Treble_; during which time the two hind Bells dodge,
and the _five first_ go a perfect _Hunting-course_: And when likewise
the _Treble_ moveth out of the 5ths. place the five first Bells go a
_Hunting-course_, till it comes down there again: By this method it will
go 80 changes, and by _Bobs_ 160, 240, or 480. The _Bob_ is made as in
the foregoing Changes.
And here I thought to make an end of the _Art of Ringing_, but _Cynthius
aurem vellit_, the young Practitioner, whose only Information is hereby
aimed at, plucks me by the Sleeve, and tells me in the Ear, that tho'
Peals upon six, as _Triples_ and _Doubles_, &c. make excellent Musick
upon Eight _Bells_, 4 8, 6 8, 4 1, or 1 8 lying behind: Or, _Triples_
and _Doubles_ upon the six middle Bells, the _Tenor_ lying behind; yet
for him who is not arrived to such a perfection of Skill, as to Ring
