Bells; Change ringing
The treble hath a constant dodging course, for in its hunting up it
first makes a dodg in the second and third places, and then another
behind, and then it lies still one change in the _5th_ place; then in
its hunting down it makes another dodg behind, and also another in the
_2d_ and _3d_ places, and then leads four times. So that the treble in
one of the two bells that makes every _single_ until it leads, and then
’tis made in the _2d_ and _3d_ places, except when the _5th_ lies
behind, and then an _extream_ is made in the _3d_ and _4th_ places. When
the treble leaves the two hind-bells they continue slow dodging, until
it comes up again and displaceth them. Every bell leads four times.

_St._ Dunstan’s _Doubles. 1 and 2._
The changes are all _double_ except one _single_ every _2d_ time the
treble leads, there being six in the peal. The treble is a perfect
_hunt_; and every time it goeth to lead and leaves leading, the _double_
is made on the two first and two last bells, at which changes the bells
in the _3d_ place lie still and then move down, and the two hind-bells
at the same time dodg: but at other times all the bells have a direct
hunting course. When the treble leads, and the _2d_ lieth either in the
_2d_ or _3d_ places, then a _single_ must always be made betwixt the two
next _extream_ bells to the _2d_.
