[Levinarius.] A levitate Leviner, à loro Lyemmer, appellatur is quem Levinarium & Lorarium latinè nominavimus. Nam Lyemme nostra lingua, Lorum significat. Quod autem a levitate Leviner, hoc est a latina voce Britannicam, diducimus: cur in libris nostris sparsim a Græcis dictionibus & Latinis Italicis & Germanicis, Gallicis & Hispanicis nostratia multa derivamus, unde ortum eadem multa habuerunt: This dogge is called a Leuyner, for his lyghtnesse, which in latine soundeth _Leuitas_, Or a Lyemmer which worde is borrowed of Lyemme, which the latinists name _Lorum_: and wherefore we call him a Leuyner of this worde _Leuitas_? (as we doe many things besides) why we deriue and drawe a thousand of our tearmes, out of the _Greeke_, the _Latine_, the _Italian_, the _Dutch_, the _French_, and the _Spanishe_ tounge? (Out of which fountaines in deede, they had their originall issue.) [Lib. de symphonia.] & quemadmodum ab origine sua etiam multa per corruptionem jam declinarunt, libello nostro de symphonia seu consonantia vocum Britannicarum fusius explicabimus. How many words are buryed in the graue of forgetfulnes? growne out of vse? wrested awrye? and peruersly corrupted by diuers defaultes? we wil declare at large in our booke intituled, _Symphonia vocum Britannicarum_. Of the Tumbler. [Vertagus.] Postremus inter venaticos Vertagus est, quem Tumbler vocitamus; quòd tumble apud nos vertere est Latinis, & tumbiere Gallis, unde ortum habet id nomen Tumbler, mutata vocali in liquidam nostro more: contra quàm in lingua Gallica & Italica, in quibus liquida ante vocalem, magna ex parte in aliam vocalem vertitur, ut impiere & piano, pro implere & plano, quæ exempli gratia adduce, cum infinita sint. Among houndes the Tumbler called in latine _Vertagus_, is the last, which commeth of this worde Tumbler flowyng first of al out of the French fountaine. For as we say Tumble so they, _Tumbier_, reseruing one sense and signification, which the latinists comprehende vnder this worde _Vertere_, So that we see thus much, that Tumbler commeth of _Tumbier_, the vowell, I, chaunged into the _Liquid_, L, after y^e maner of our speache. Contrary to the French and the Italian tounge. In which two languages, A _Liquid_ before a _Vowell_ for the most part is turned into another _Vowell_, As, may be perceaued in the example of these two wordes, _Implere_ & _plano_, for _Impiere_ & _piano_, L, before, E, chaunged into, I, and L, before A, turned into I, also. This I thought conuenient for a taste. The names of such Dogges as be contained in the second Section. [Aucupatorii.] Post Venaticos sequuntur Aucupatorii; inter quos primus est Hispaniolus, quem ab Hispania voce nomen accepisse prius diximus. Nostri omissa aspiratione & prima vocali, Spainel & Spaniel expediti sermonis causa proferunt.
