The _Third_ being _hunted_ up, another _Extream_ must be
made,
which brings the Bells round in their right places.--

The _Plain Changes_ on four Bells.

On four Bells, there are _Twenty four several Changes_, in

_Ringing_ of which, there is one Bell called the _Hunt_, and the other
three are _Extream_ Bells; the _Hunt_ moves, and
_hunts_ up and
down continually, and lies but once in one
place, except only when it
comes before or behind the Bells, at which time it lies there twice
together; it has the same course here, as in the _six Changes_ before set
down; two of the _Extream_ Bells makes a _Change_ every time the
_Hunt_
comes before or behind them. An Example I will here give,

making the _Treble_ the _Hunt_, and the _Extream Changes_
I make
between the two farthest _Extream_ Bells from the
_Hunt_. I set
down the _four Figures_, representing the
_four Bells_, thus.--
1234
The _Treble_ must now be _hunted_ up behind the Bells,
where it is
to lie twice together, and then to _hunt_
down before them, where it
must lie twice, and then _hunt_
up again as before. The _Hunt_ is
alwayes one of the two
Bells which makes every _Change_, except
only when it comes before or behind the Bells, and it moves only over
one Bell at a time; 'tis to be _hunted_ up after this manner.--

The _Treble_ being _hunted_ up behind the Bells, as appears by the
last _Changes_, the next is to be an _Extream Change_ between the
two farthest _Extream_ Bells from the _Hunt_,
which are the
_Second_ and _Third_, thus.--
3241
The _Extream_ being made, the _Treble_ must be _hunted_
down
again, as in these _Changes_.--

The Treble being hunted down, there is another Extream
Change to
be made between the two farthest Bells from it,
which are the Second
and Fourth.--
1342
The Extream being made, the Treble must be hunted as before, and so
to the end of the Peal, making an Extream Change
every time the
Hunt comes before and behind the Bells.--
