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
Secondly, as the _2d_, _3d_, _4th_, and _5th_ bells move through the
first Course, so the bells that lie in the _2d_, _3d_, _4th_, and _5th_
places in the last change of every course, moves in the same manner also
through the next following course. For instance; first, for the bell in
the _2d_ place: in the first course the _2d_ bell moves down to lead,
where it lieth twice, and then dodges untill the _treble_ comes down to
it. So likewise in the second course, the _3d_ bell lying in the _2d_
place moves down to lead, where it lies twice, and then dodges until
_treble_ comes down to it; and also in the third course, the _5th_ bell
lying in the _2d_ place, moves down to lead where it lieth twice, and
dodgeth until the _treble_ moves down to it. Secondly, for the bell in
the _3d_ place. In the first course the _3d_ bell moves down to lead,
and there dodgeth untill the _treble_ comes down to it: so likewise in
the second course the _5th_ bell lying in the _3d_ place moves down to
lead, and there dodgeth untill the _treble_ comes down to it: and also
in the _3d_ course the _4th_ bell lying in the _3d_ place moves down to
lead, and there dodgeth until the _treble_ comes down to it. Thirdly,
for the bell in the fourth place: In the first course, the fourth bell
moves up behind, then down into the _3d_ place where it lieth twice,
then up again behind; so likewise in the second course, the _2d_ bell
lying in the _4th_ place moves up behind, then down into the _3d_ place
where it lieth twice, then up again behind; and also in the third course
the _3d_ bell lying in the _4th_ place, moves therefore up behind, then
down into the _3d_ place where it lieth twice, then up again behind. And
such uniform motion also hath the bell in the _5th_ place through every
course.
Thirdly, that the changes in all the courses of the peal are made alike,
will here also plainly appear in the three courses. For the first change
of every course is made on the two first and two last bells; the second
change of every course is made on the four last; the third is made on
the four first; the fourth on the two first and two last; the fifth on
the four first; the sixth on the two first and two last; the seventh on
the four first; the eighth on the four last; the ninth on the two first
and two last; and the tenth single.
