Part 11

_Quadruples and Triples._ The _first_ hath single dodging behind; the _second_ single dodging before and behind; the _third_ double dodging behind; and the _fourth_ double dodging before and behind. It may also be prickt a _fifth_ way, _viz._ with single dodging before, and double dodging behind. And likewise a _sixth_ way, _viz._ with doubled dodging before, and single dodging behind. The dodging is without intermission except when Treble hindreth, and also betwixt two bells until Treble parts them. By this method each of them will go 112, and by making of _bobs_ they will go 224, 336, or 672. The _bobs_ are _triple_ changes at the leadings of the Treble; in the _first_ _second_ and _sixth_ the bell in the _4th_ place lieth still at the _bobs_, and in the _third_ _fourth_ and _fifth_ the bell in the _2d_ place lieth still. The warning for the _bobs_ is the same with that in _Bob-major_ next before. And the _extreams_ made as in that peal, 2 may be the _half_ and 4 the _quarter-hunt_ in the four first, or others at pleasure.

By this method it will go 112, and by making of _bobs_ it will go 224, 336, or 672. The _bob_ is a _triple-change_ at the leadings of the Treble, wherein the bell in the _4th_ place lieth still. The warning for the _bobs_ is the same with that in _Bob-major_, and the _extreams_ also the same as in that peal. The 2 may be the _half-hunt_, and 4 the _quarter-hunt_, or others at pleasure.

_Triples._ The _fourth_ bell must first hunt up into the _7th_ place and then the 4 and 8 continually dodg behind throughout the peal, except when the Treble hindreth them. The bell that moves up into the _6th_ place when the Treble moves down from thence, lieth still there until the Treble displaceth it; during which time the two hind bells dodg, and the five first go a perfect hunting course. And also when the Treble moves up out of the _5th_ place, the five first bells go a hunting course until it comes down there again. By this method it will go _eighty_ changes, and by making of _bobs_ it will go 160, 240, or 480. The _bob_ is a _triple_ change at the leading of the Treble, wherein the bell in the _4th_ place lieth still.

To ring 160. Every time the _half-hunt_ maketh a change in the _2d_ and _3d_ places, a _bob_ must at the same time be made.

To ring 240. Every time the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_ make a change together in the second and third places, a _bob_ must then be made.

To ring 480. Every time the _half-hunt_ maketh a change in the second and third places, a _bob_ must then be made, except when the _quarter-hunt_ makes a change there with it, and then not. The 2 may be the _half-hunt_, and 6 the _quarter-hunt_, or others at pleasure.

The method of ringing this peal is the same in all respects with that next before, with this only difference. Every time the _whole-hunt_ leads, the _triple_ change is here made on the six middle bells, which parts the two hind-bells, and so introduceth them by degrees into the body of the peal. By this method it will go 112, and by making of _bobs_ it will go 224, 336, or 672. The _bob_ is a _triple_ change at the leading of the Treble, wherein the bell in the _6th_ place lieth still. The warning for the _bobs_ in the 224 is the same with that in the 160 next before. In the 336 ’tis the same with that in the 240 next before. And in the 672 ’tis the same with that in the 480 next before. 2 may be the _half-hunt_ and 5 the _quarter-hunt_, or others at pleasure.

_The Grand Experiment._

_Quadruples and Triples._ The Treble is the _whole-hunt_, but never hunteth up farther than the sixth place; for the six first bells go _triples_ and _doubles_, it matters not of what sort, provided that the _double_ changes at the leadings of the Treble are always made on the four hindmost of the six bells; which course of _triples_ and _doubles_ must be continued, the two hindmost of the eight bells in the mean time dodging until the first _Parting_ change is made, which will separate the two hindmost bells; and then the six first bells go the same course of _triples_ and _doubles_ again, the two hindmost bells in the mean time dodging as before, until the second _Parting_ change is made, and so successively. The _Parting_ change is a _triple_ change on the six middle bells, and made at the leadings of the _whole-hunt_. The first _Parting_ change may be made either at the first second third fourth or fifth leading of the Treble; observing, that whatsoever bell in the first _Parting_ change moves down to the Treble, when the Treble leads and that bell lieth next it again, the second _Parting_ change must then be made. And again, whatsoever bell in the second _Parting_ change moves down to the Treble, when the Treble leads and that bell lieth next it again, the third _Parting_ change must then be made, and so successively; there being seven _Parting_ changes in the peal, and as many _half-hunts_, each of the _seven_ bells taking that place one after another. So that the seven persons that ring the _2d_, _3d_, _4th_, _5th_, _6th_, and _7th_ bells, must call the _Parting_ changes one after another, according as the aforesaid rule directs them: or else he that rings the Treble may do it, but not so well as the rest. To ring it with such peals upon six bells which consist of single courses, it will go 420; with double courses 840. This peal may also be rung _triples_, that is, the six first bells to go _doubles_, the two hind bells in the mean time dodging, and the _Parting_ changes to be made as before. But in ringing it with such Peals of _Triples_ and _Doubles_, or else _Doubles_ upon six bells, where the _double_ change at every leading of the Treble is made in the _2d_ _3d_ _5th_ and _6th_ places, there, whatsoever two bells lie next the Treble at the first _Parting_ change, the same two bells will lie next it at every _Parting_ change, which will be a rule for calling them, there being only five _Parting_ changes in it, which are _triples_ as before. The first _Parting_ change may also here be made either the first second third fourth or fifth time the Treble leads. If it is rung with peals upon _six_ bells, consisting of single Courses, it will then go 300, with double Courses 600. This peal may also be rung by _Concatenating_ of divers kinds of methods. For as the peal consists of several parts, _viz._ from one _Parting_ change to the next, being accounted a compleat part; so each part may be rung by a different method from the rest. For any peals upon six bells, whether _doubles_, or _triples and doubles_, consisting either of single or double Courses, may indifferently be rung together in this peal, succeeding each other in the several parts of it, and at every _Parting_ change a new method to begin. Or else any two of them to succeed each other alternately throughout the parts of the peal, or more or less at pleasure. But still observing, that all that are rung together in one peal must be such, where the _doubles_ at the leadings of the Treble are made on the four hindmost of the six bells; or else all of them such, where the _doubles_ at the leadings of the Treble are made in the second and third, and the fifth and sixth places. If they are of the first kind, then there will be seven _Parting_ changes in the peal, and as many _half-hunts_; and the _half-hunts_ must successively call the _Parting_ changes as before I have shewed: if of the later kind, then but five _Parting_ changes, which must be call’d by the same rule as before I have shewed in ringing it with one peal of this kind. And also observing, if the first _Parting_ change is made at the first second third or fourth leading of the Treble, then whatsoever method it goes at first, it must also go the same again after the last _Parting_ change is made. But in ringing it with peals of the first kind, the second being made the first _half-hunt_, and to call the first _Parting_ change; and with peals of the later, the _3d_ likewise: then the last _Parting_ change in either of them will conclude the peal.

This peal may go the method of the _Experiment_ upon _six_ bells, _page 162_, that is, the four first bells to go the _Twenty four_ Doubles and Singles as in that peal; and the four hindmost bells in the mean time to dodg double. The _Parting_ changes are _triples_ on the middle bells, and the same rules observed in making and calling them, as in that peal: but here are seven of them in this, and 168 changes.

The _Experiment_ upon _six_ may also be rung _Comprehensively_ herein. The six first bells to go that compleat peal, the two hindmost of the eight bells in the mean time dodging; and every time the _3d_ bell comes to call the _Parting_ change on six, then instead of it a _Grand_ change must be made, that is, a _triple_ on the six middle bells: and then the six first bells to go the compleat peal again, the two hindmost bells in the mean time dodging as before, untill the third bell calls another _Grand_ change, and so successively; there being three of them in the peal, and 360 changes. If the bells are placed 23567148 at the beginning, the 4.8 will dodg behind the first _sixscore_ of it, 4.1 the second, and 1.8 the third, and then the _5th_ may call the _Grand_ changes in the place of the _3d_; or any other three bells may be laid behind at first, for the sake of Musical dodging. The first _Grand_ change may be made either at the first second third fourth or fifth _Parting_ change, observing, that whatsoever bell at the first _Grand_ change should then in course have call’d a _Parting_ change, every time that bell comes to call a _Parting_ change, it must call a _Grand_ change in the place of it: or else any one of the six first bells (the _whole-hunt_ excepted) may be appointed beforehand to attend the calling of the _Grand_ changes, observing, that every time that bell comes to call a _Parting_ change, a _Grand_ change must be call’d in the place of it.

_Imperial Bob._

_Quadruples and Triples._ The Treble hath a dodging course. The two first and two last bells always dodg until the Treble hindreth them, and in the mean time the two next bells to those dodging bells do lie still one change, dodg the next, and so by turns until the Treble also hindreth them. And the two bells in the fifth and sixth places whilst the Treble is behind, and those in the _3d_ and _4th_ places when ’tis before dodg, until Treble likewise hindreth them. By this method it will go 224, and by making of _bobs_ it will go 448, 672, or 1344. The _bob_ is a _triple_ change at the leading of the Treble, wherein the bell in the fourth place lieth still.

To ring 448. Every time the _half-hunt_ dodgeth behind a _bob_ must then be made, as in this here prickt, where 2 is the _half-hunt_.

To ring 672. Every time the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_ dodg together behind, a _bob_ must then be made.

To ring 1344. Every time the _half-hunt_ dodgeth behind a _bob_ must then be made, except when the _quarter-hunt_ dodgeth there with it, and then not. The 2 and 4 may be the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_, others at pleasure.

The Changes are plain _Trebles_ and _Doubles_ until the Treble leads, and then a _single_ change is always made. The Peal called _Old Doubles and Singles_ upon five bells is the ground of this Peal, every _single_ in this peal being the _single_ in that. For as in that peal the _whole-hunt_ is one of the two bells that make every _single_; so likewise in this, the 6 being the _half-hunt_, is one of the two bells that makes every _single_ change herein, except when it lieth next the _whole-hunt_, and then the _single_ is behind; but when 2 lieth also next the 6, then _extream_ in the fourth and fifth places.

The ordinary course is to move directly, except when the _whole-hunt_ passes either out of or into the _second_’s place, and then constantly dodg behind. There are single and double _bobs_; the _bob_ is a _double_ change at the leading of the Treble, wherein the bell in the _4th_ place lieth still. When the third _hunt_ dodges behind, the second _hunt_ then leading, is a warning for the single _bob_ to be made at the next leading of the Treble. And when the second and third _hunts_ dodg together behind, is a warning for the double _bob_ to be made at the two next leadings of the Treble. The two _extreams_ in the 720 must be made according to the general rule in the _Introduction_, _p. 90_.

One time the Treble hunts quite up, the next time only up into the fourth place, and so by turns, as in the example here prickt. The bells observe the course of the Treble, and also dodg it being before; and once in 120 changes _bob_, when that bell which is nominated for the second _hunt_ lying behind twice, meets with the third _hunt_ when the first _hunt_ is going to lead. The second and third _hunts_ are both one.

Nottingham _Bob. 1 and 2._

The Treble hath a dodging course, and every time it leads, the _double_ is on the four middle bells, except the _bobs_ which are made in the _2d_ and _3d_, and the _5th_ and _6th_ places. The _bobs_ are single and double. When the _whole-hunt_ leads and the _half-hunt_ lieth behind, is a warning for a double _bob_ to be made at the two next leadings of the Treble, there being but three changes betwixt the two _bobs_. And when the _half-hunt_ lieth in the first and second places for twenty changes together, is a warning for a single _bob_ to be made the second time the Treble leads. The _extreams_ must be made according to the general rule in the _Introduction_, _page 90_.

The treble hath a dodging course, and when it moves up out of the _2d_ place the two first bells dodg until it comes there again; and when it moves down out of the _5th_ place, the two hind bells dodg until it comes there again, except only whilst it dodgeth in the _3d_ and _4th_ places, and then the two hind bells lie still. When the Treble lieth behind the _double_ is on the four first bells; and when it leadeth on the four last. By this method it will go 120, and by making of _bobs_ it will go 240, 360, or 720. At the _bobs_ the bell in the _4th_ place lieth still. The rule of calling the _bobs_ is the same with that in the _Colledge Bobs_, _page 162_.

This is the same with the former, excepting only the _double_ changes which are made when the Treble dodgeth in the _3d_ and _4th_ places, both in hunting up and down; which are here made on the four hind bells, whereas in that they were made on the four first bells: so that here the two hind bells dodg without intermission until the Treble hindreth them. This will also go 240, 360, and 720, and the _bobs_ made by the same rule as the former.

Every _single_ is made behind, except when the Treble is either in the fourth or fifth places, and then in the second and third places. Every time the Treble goeth to lead and leaves leading, the _double_ is on the two first and two last bells, except when the treble goeth to lead if the _5th_ gives it place, and then the _double_ is made on the four first bells.

_Doubles._ The Treble is a perfect hunt, and when it leaves the two hind bells they dodg until it comes there again. Every bell leads twice, and then hunts directly up, unless the aforesaid dodging hindreth them. Every time the Treble leads, a _single_ is made behind, except when 2 lieth next it, and then an _extream_ in the third and fourth places.
