In the Sixscore changes, four of the notes do make the Twenty four
changes, and the fifth note hunts continually through them: so that the
course and method of the Sixscore is in effect the same with that of the
Four and twenty. For as the Four and twenty comprehended the Six changes
on three; so in like manner the Sixscore comprehend the Four and twenty
changes on four, and the Six changes on three. Therefore in the Sixscore
there must be two hunts and three extream bells; one of the hunts is
term’d the whole-hunt, and the other the half-hunt, The three extream
bells do make the Six changes in the same manner as they were made
before in the Four and twenty changes upon four bells, and are here also
call’d Extream changes: the half-hunt and three extream bells do make
the Four and twenty changes in the same manner as the Four and twenty
changes on four bells were likewise made: and the whole hunt continually
hunts through those four bells, and every time it either leads or lies
behind them, one change must then be made in the twenty four. 1 shall
here be the whole-hunt, 2 the half-hunt, and 345 extream bells: so that
2345 must make the four and twenty changes. Every extream change shall
be made betwixt the two farthest extream bells from the half-hunt.
First, the treble hunts up (_a_). One of the twenty four changes must
now be made; and therefore 2 which is the hunt in the twenty four, must
begin its motion through the extream bells (_b_). The treble hunts down
(_c_); the half-hunt must proceed in its course (_d_); the whole-hunt
hunts up (_e_); The half-hunt proceeds forward (_f_); the whole-hunt
moves down (_g_). The half-hunt should now proceed, but having finished
its course through the extream bells, therefore an extream change must
now be made betwixt the two farthest extream bells from it, which are
3.4 (_h_). The treble must hunt up (_i_); the half-hunt must now begin
its course again through the extream bells (_k_); treble hunts down
(_l_); the half-hunt proceeds in its course down (_m_); treble hunts up
(_n_); the half-hunt proceeds in its course down (_o_); treble hunts
down (_p_); the half-hunt having finished its course, therefore an
