Campanalogia : $b or The art of ringing improved : with plain and easie rules to guide the practitioner in the ringing all kinds of changes, to which is added, great variety of new peals.
Stedman, Fabian
Bells; Change ringing
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.
