Part 9

_Doubles and singles._ The treble is the _whole hunt_, and hunteth up into the _2d_, _3d_ and _4th_ places, lying twice in each; then having made a dodg behind, it lyeth still in the sixth place, and then makes another dodg behind, and so hunts down in the same manner as it hunted up, and then leads four times. When the Treble moves down out of the fifth place, the two hind-bells dodge untill it comes up there again; during which time the bell in the _4th_ place lieth still. And when the Treble moves up out of the second place, each bell that comes there lieth four times, until the Treble comes down there again. Every _single_ is made behind. By this method it will go 120 changes; and by making of _bobs_ it will go 240, 360, or 270. At the _bobs_ the bell in the _2d_ place always lieth still.

To ring 240. Every time the _half-hunt_ dodgeth behind, a _bob_ must then be made, as in this here prickt, where 2 is the _half-hunt_.

The warning for the _bobs_ in the 360 and 720, is the same with that in the peal next before: 2 may be the _half-hunt_, and 4 the _quarter-hunt_, or others at pleasure.

_The City Delight._

_Doubles and Singles_. Treble is the _whole-hunt_, and lieth four times before, four times behind, and twice in every other place. When it moves up out of the third place, the _singles_ are made in the second and third places until it comes there again, and then behind until it moves up again out of the third place. When it moves down out of the fourth place, the two hind-bells dodg until it comes up there again, during which time the bell in the fourth place lieth still. 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 second place always lieth still; and the warning for them is the same with that in the two last peals. In the 240 here prickt, 2 is the _half-hunt_; and in the 360 or 720, the 2 and 4 may be the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_, or others at pleasure.

London _Nightingale_.

_Doubles and Singles._ Treble is the _whole-hunt_, and lieth four times before, four times behind and twice in every other place. When it moves down out of the _5th_ place, the two hind-bells continue dodging until it comes there again, during which time the bell in the fourth place lieth still. And when the two hind-bells leave dodging then the two first bells dodg until the hind-bells dodg again, and then they cease. 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 second place always lyeth still; and the warning for them is the same with that in the preceding peals. In the 240 here prickt, 2 is the _half-hunt_; and in the 360 or 720, the 2 and 4 may be the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_ or others at pleasure.

_The Evening Delight._

_Doubles and Singles._ Treble is the _whole-hunt_ and leads four times, lies behind four times, and twice in every other place, except in the _2d_ and _3d_ places where it makes a dodg every time it hunts up and down. Every other bell hath the same course with the _whole-hunt_; but observing, when they come down and have made a _dodg_ in the second and third places, they lie still one change in the second place, and then make another _dodg_ there, and so hunt up as the Treble did. But note, when the Treble goeth to lead and leaves leading, the bells in the third and fourth places lie still. Every _single_ is made in the second and third places, and every bell lieth four times behind. By this method it will go 120, and by making of _bobs_ it will go 240, 360, or 720. At the _bob_-change, the bell in the _4th_ place always lieth still.

_Non-such Bob._

_Doubles._ Treble is the _whole-hunt_, and hath a direct hunting course. When it moves up out of the third place, the bell that comes there lieth still until the Treble comes down there again; during which time the two first bells dodg. When the Treble leaves the two hind-bells, they dodg until the change wherein the Treble goeth to lead, and then one of them moves down; but as soon as that change is made, the two hind-bells dodg again until the Treble moves up and parts them. Every time the Treble leads, the _double_ is made on the four hind-bells throughout the peal. By this method it will go _sixty_ changes; and by making of _bobs_ it will go 120, 180, or 360. The _bob_ is always made at the change wherein the Treble goeth to lead, the two first and two last bells making it.

These six peals will each of them go _sixty_ changes without any _bob_, and by making of _bobs_ each of them will go 120, 180, and 360. In three of them, _viz._ _Triples Doubles_ and _Singles_, _Single bob_, and _City bob_, at the _bob-changes_ the bell in the fourth place always lyeth still; whereas at the rest of the changes which are made at the leadings of the _whole-hunt_, the bell in the second place lieth still. And in the other three peals, _viz._ _Triples doubles and singles dodging behind_, _Doubles and Triples_, and _London Bob_, at the _bob-changes_ the bell in the second place always lieth still, whereas at the rest of the changes that are made at the leadings of the _whole-hunt_, the bell in the fourth place lieth still. The warning for the _bobs_ in the 120, 180, and 360, in each of these _six_ peals is the same with that in the 120, 180, and 360 in _Colledge Doubles_, _p. 143._ Each of these peals will go 720 with two _extreams_, which must be made according to the rule in the _Introduction_, _page 90._

In the 120 of each there prickt, _viz._, in _City Bob_, _London Bob_, and _Triples doubles_ and _singles_, the 2 is the _half-hunt_, and in the other three peals the 3 is the _half-hunt_.

In the 180 and 360 of each peal, the 2 and 4 may be the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_, or others at pleasure.

_New Bob._

_Triples and Doubles._ The general method of this Peal is the same with _Grandsire Bob_, and the _bobs_ also made as in that peal. It will go 120, 180, or 240, and by making of two _extreams_ it will go 360 or 480; and with six _singles_ it will go 720.

To ring 120. Every time the _half-hunt_ dodgeth behind a _bob_ must then be made.

To ring 180. Every time the _half_ and _quarter-hunt_ dodg together behind, a _bob_ must then be made; and by making of two _extreams_ it will go 360. The first _extream_ may be made at the first, second, or third _bob_; observing to make the second _extream_ at the third following _bob_ from the first _extream_, where the _singles_ in both must be made behind.

To ring 720. The _bobs_ throughout the peal are made by the same rule as in the 120, but farther observing, when the _whole_ and _half-hunts_ come together before, if the _quarter-hunt_ lieth either in the third or fourth places, then a _single_ must be made betwixt the two next _extream_ bells to the _quarter-hunt_.

The 2 may be the _half-hunt_ and 4 the _quarter-hunt_, or others at pleasure.

_Colledge Little Bob, dodging behind._

_Triples and Doubles._ The Treble is the _whole-hunt_, and hath a direct hunting course. When it moves down out of the fifth place, the two hind-bells dodg until it comes there again. All the bells have a direct hunting course, but observing, that when any bell moves up into the fourth place, if the Treble is then any where below it, it lies there twice, and then moves down again. By this method it will go _sixty_ changes; and by making of _bobs_ it will go 120, 180, or 360. At every _bob-change_ the bell in the second place lieth still. The warning for the _bobs_ is the same with that in _Colledge Doubles_, _page 143._ And the two _extreams_ in the 720 must be made according to the rule in the _Introduction_, _page 90_.

In the 120 here prickt, 3 is the _half-hunt_; and in the 180 or 360, 2 and 4 may be the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_, or others at pleasure.

_This peal in practice will be found very plain and easie, and also good Musick._

_Colledge Little Bob, dodging before and behind._

_Triples and Doubles._ The Treble hath a direct hunting course, and when it moves up out of the second place, the two first bells dodg until it comes there again; and also when it moves down out of the _5th_ place, the two hind-bells dodg until it comes there again. Every bell that moves up into the fourth place, if the Treble is any where below it, lies there twice and then hunts down; and also every bell that moves down into the third place, if the Treble is any where above it, lieth there twice, and then hunts up behind. By this method it will go _sixty_ changes, and by making of _bobs_ it will go 120, 180, or 360. At every _bob-change_ the bell in the second place lieth still. The 2 is the _half-hunt_ in the 120 here prickt, and 2 and 4 may be the _half_ and _quarter-hunts_ in the 120 and 360, or others at pleasure.

The warning for the _bobs_ is the same with that in the _Colledge Doubles_, _p. 143_. And the two _extreams_ in the 720 must be made according to the general rule in the _Introduction_, _page 90_.

_Court Bob._

_Triples_ and _Doubles._ The Treble hath a direct hunting course. Every bell that comes before and behind makes a _Dodg_, then lieth still, and so moves away, except the bell that lieth still behind when the treble leads, and also that bell which leads when the Treble lieth behind, both which do dodg before and after their lying still, and then move away. When the treble leads and lieth behind, the _double_ is made on the four middle bells. By this method it will go _sixty_ changes; and with _bobs_ it will go 120, 180, or 360. At the _bob-changes_ the bell in the fourth place lieth still.
