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
The general method of this peal is the same with that next before, but
with this difference; whereas in that peal _singles_ were made at the
end of every sixty changes to carry on the course, in this there are
_double_ changes made in their stead, which are called _Bob_-changes,
and made when the treble leads in the _2d_ and _3d_ and the _5th_ and
_6th_ places, whereas at other times the _double_ is there made on the
four hind bells.
The Practitioner may observe these rules in the ringing of it, _viz._
whatsoever bells he followeth when he hunteth up, he must follow the
same bells again, and in the same order, the next time he hunts down, as
in these changes here prickt; where the treble in hunting up first
follows 2, then 4, and then 6; and when it comes behind, first it
follows 2 again, then in its hunting down it follows 4 and 6 in the same
order as when it hunted up; which is also observed in the ringing of any
other bell, but with this difference betwixt the _whole-hunt_ and the
rest of the bells, _viz._ Every time the _whole-hunt_ leaves the
_treble’s_ place and hunts up, it followeth different bells from what it
did in its former hunting up, as may be seen in this example: where in
its first hunting up it first follows 2, then 4, then 6; whereas in the
next hunting up it first follows 3, then 2, then 4. But the first time
any other bell leads after a _bob_, whatsoever bells it then follows in
its hunting up, it follows the same bells likewise and in the same order
every time it hunts up, and consequently every time it hunts down unto
the next _bob_; as in this example, where 2 in its first hunting up,
first follows 4, then 6, then 5, and likewise when it next hunts up it
follows 465 as before, _&c._ But when the _whole-hunt_ is the second
bell which he follows in hunting up, he must follow it again when he
next lies behind.
