e compleat Peals, the most proper and easy for him are _Set-changes_, which are founded on these _Grounds_. First, _Placing the Bells Fifths_; thus the 4 must hunt up behind the 7, the 3 behind the 6, and the 2 behind the 5; or the one may Hunt down under the other, as the 5 under the 2, the 6 under 3, and 7 under 4: Or if you will, first let a _Single_, next a _Double_, and then a _Triple_ Change be made on the middle _Bells_, all coming to the same effect; for then the Changes will lye _Fifths_ thus: 1 5, 2 6, 3 7, 4 8. In the Peal four _Concords_ are to be regarded, The first 1 5, the Second 2 6, the third 3 7, and the fourth 4 8. These four _Concords_ may go the Methods of any Changes upon four _Bells_; 1, 5 being taken for the _Treble_; 2, 6 for the _Second_; 3, 6 for the _Third_; and 4, 8 for the _Fourth_; and the _Concords_ may Change places with one another, as you lift. In which this Observation is highly necessary, that the two Notes of every _Concord_ must constantly attend each other in their Motion; that is, whenever one of the two Notes moves, the other must follow it. Or Secondly, _Place the Bells Thirds_; thus: The 6 4 and 2 must hunt up, or else the 3 5 7 down; or otherwise on the middlemost _Bells_ let a _Triple_, _Double_ or _Single_ Change be made, are to one effect; and then the _Bells_ will lye _Thirds_ thus, 1 3. 5 7. 2 4. 6 8. Herein are four _Concords observable_; as in the former Peal, _viz._ 1 3. 5 7. 2 4. 6 8. These _Concords_ may go the Methods of any Changes upon Four _Bells_, 1, 3 being taking for the _Treble_, 5, 7 for the Second; 2, 4 for the Third; and 6, 8 for the Fourth; moving in the same manner; as before shewed. By these _Grounds_ Variety of excellent and Musical Changes are to be Rung; _any Concord may be made a Hunt_, and to move up and down at the beginning. In Ringing these _Set-changes_, the Note will lye sometimes _Fifths_, sometimes _Thirds_ and both, and then to _Clam_ them, is admirable Musick: Clamming is, when each _Concord_ strike together; which being done true the 8 will strike as but four _Bells_, and make a Melodious Harmony. You may _Clam_ two or three bouts, and then strike as many times Open, alternatively, one _Clam_ one Pull, and Open the next, &c. Vocal Musick: _Or, Plain and Easy Directions to Sing by Notes, wherein with a little Help, any one who is Musically given, may be perfected in a short time_. Musick, especially Vocal, has been
