[232] "In this place," or "here, here." This passage, which reads somewhat confusedly in our MS., is clearer in Twety and Gyfford (_Reliquiæ Antiquæ_, vol. i. p. 149). It reads as follows: "And then ye shall blowe iij notes, yf yowr hund ne chace not well hym, there one ther another, as he hath pasturyd hym, ye shall say _'Illeosque, illeosque, illeosque_,'" meaning that 3 motes should be blown where the hare has pastured to bring your hounds to the place, _illeosque_ meaning here, in this place. [233] "Softly there, here she has been, back there." Following this the Shirley MS. and Twety and Gyfford contain a passage which our MS. has not got: "And thenne _sa cy, a este sohow_, and afterwards _sa cy avaunt_." [234] "Softly, my friend, she has been here." [235] "Here gently, here valiantly." [236] To call back the hounds from a wrong scent, the same as "recheat." [237] The words in brackets are in the Shirley MS. [238] Huntsman holding hounds in leash. [Illustration: HARE-HUNTING WITH GREYHOUNDS AND RUNNING HOUNDS (From MS. f. fr. 616, _Bib.

And thence he should warn the hunters and fewterers whither they should come, and the forester should have men ready there to meet them, that they go no farther, nor straggle about for fear of frightening the game, before the King comes. And if the hunting shall be in a park all men should remain at the park gate, save the stable that ought to be set ere the King comes, and they should be set by the foresters or parkers. And early in the morning the Master of the Game should be at the wood to see that all be ready, and he or his lieutenant or such hunters that he wishes, ought to set the greyhounds and who so be teasers[240] to the King or to the Queen, or to their attendants. As often as any hart cometh out he should when he passes blow a mote and recheat, and let slip to tease it forth, and if it be a stag, he should let him pass as I said and rally to warn the fewterers what is coming out.
