There areSix-score Changesto beRangonfive Bells, which are to beRang, by observing awhole Hunt, ahalf Hunt, andthree Extream Bells; the course of thewhole Hunt, is the same with theHuntin theTwenty-four Changes, andhuntsup and down in the same manner. Thehalf Huntmoves once, that is, over one Bell every time, thewhole Huntcomes before and behind the Bells; but when thehalf Huntis removed either before or behind theExtream Bells, then there is anExtream Changeto be made. For Example, I make theTreblethewhole Hunt, andhuntit up; and theSecondthehalf Huntandhalf huntit up, making everyExtream Changebetween the two farthestExtream Bellsfrom thehalf Hunt; theExtream Bellsare theThird,Fourth,Fifth: Now observe, that whereas in theTwenty-four Changes, anExtream Changewas alwayes made, when thewhole Huntcame before or behind theBells, in theseSix-scoreChangesanExtreamis alwayes to be made, when theHalf Huntcomes before or behind theExtream Bells; first the Treble is to behuntedup, as in theseChanges.—
1234521345231452341523451Thewhole Huntbeinghuntedup, theSecond, which is thehalf Hunt, must behuntedup over oneBell, as in thisChange.—32451Thehalf Huntbeing removed up over oneBell, thewhole Huntmust behunteddown again, as in theseChanges.—32415321453124513245Thewhole Huntbeinghunteddown, thehalf Huntis to be removed up over theFourth, which is the nextBellto it.—13425Thewhole Huntis tohuntup as before.—31425341253421534251Now thehalf Huntis to behuntedup over theFifth, which is the nextBellto it, thus.—34521Here theSecond, which is thehalf Hunt, is removed quite up behind theExtreamBells; yet theExtream Changeis not to be made, until thewhole Hunthas removed down through theBells, as in theseChanges.—34512341523145213452And it is a constant Rule, that whensoever thehalf Hunthas removed up behind theExtream Bells, or down before them, thewhole Huntmusthuntthrough the Bells, before theExtream Changeis made, as in the lastChangebut four, which is 3, 4, 5, 2, 1. theSecondbeing thehalf Hunt, is removed up behind the 3, 4, and 5. which are theExtreamBells; and then thewhole Huntbeing behind,huntsimmediately down; and now theExtreame Changeis to be made between the 3, and 4. which are the two farthestExtreamBells from thehalf Hunt, as in thisChange.—14352TheExtreambeing made, thewhole HuntandhalfHuntare toremove again; and first thewhole Huntmust behuntedup.—41352431524351243521Now thehalf Huntis to behunteddown under one Bell, thus.—43251Thehalf Huntbeing removed, thewhole Huntis to behunteddown.—43215431254132514325Thehalf Huntis to be removed down under another Bell, as in thisChange.—14235Now I hunt up the Treble.—41235421354231542351The Treble beinghuntedup, Ihuntdown theSecondbefore theExtreamBells.—24351Now Ihuntdown the Treble again, and then make theExtream Change, as in theseChanges.—2431524135214351243512453
Thewhole Huntbeinghuntedup, theSecond, which is thehalf Hunt, must behuntedup over oneBell, as in thisChange.—
Thehalf Huntbeing removed up over oneBell, thewhole Huntmust behunteddown again, as in theseChanges.—
Thewhole Huntbeinghunteddown, thehalf Huntis to be removed up over theFourth, which is the nextBellto it.—
Thewhole Huntis tohuntup as before.—
Now thehalf Huntis to behuntedup over theFifth, which is the nextBellto it, thus.—
Here theSecond, which is thehalf Hunt, is removed quite up behind theExtreamBells; yet theExtream Changeis not to be made, until thewhole Hunthas removed down through theBells, as in theseChanges.—
And it is a constant Rule, that whensoever thehalf Hunthas removed up behind theExtream Bells, or down before them, thewhole Huntmusthuntthrough the Bells, before theExtream Changeis made, as in the lastChangebut four, which is 3, 4, 5, 2, 1. theSecondbeing thehalf Hunt, is removed up behind the 3, 4, and 5. which are theExtreamBells; and then thewhole Huntbeing behind,huntsimmediately down; and now theExtreame Changeis to be made between the 3, and 4. which are the two farthestExtreamBells from thehalf Hunt, as in thisChange.—
TheExtreambeing made, thewhole HuntandhalfHuntare toremove again; and first thewhole Huntmust behuntedup.—
Now thehalf Huntis to behunteddown under one Bell, thus.—
Thehalf Huntbeing removed, thewhole Huntis to behunteddown.—
Thehalf Huntis to be removed down under another Bell, as in thisChange.—
Now I hunt up the Treble.—
The Treble beinghuntedup, Ihuntdown theSecondbefore theExtreamBells.—
Now Ihuntdown the Treble again, and then make theExtream Change, as in theseChanges.—
The last is theExtream Change, which is made between theThirdandFifth; and this course is to be observed to the end of theSix-scoreChanges, which is setdown atlarge at the end of the directions to thisPeal.
Another short Example I will insert, which isSeconddown, andFourthup, (for that is the common Phrase amongstRingers) whereby 'tis alwayes to be observed, that the first Bell which is named, is thewhole Hunt, and the second that is named, is thehalf Hunt, as herein you may perceive; whereSeconddown, is meant, that theSecondBell is thewhole Hunt, and tohuntdown the firstChange; and theFourthBell is thehalf Hunt, and tohalf huntup, that is, to move up towards the hindmost Bell the first time it moves at the beginning of thePeal; which are only directions in making the firstChanges, for onewhole Huntandhalf Huntmay be hunted several wayes, either up or down at pleasure. First, Ihuntdown theSecond.—
1234521345TheSecondbeinghunteddown, theFourth, which is thehalf Hunt, must be removed up over one Bell, thus.—21354Thehalf Huntbeing removed, I musthuntup theSecond, as in theseChanges.—12354132541352413542315423152431254321542315423145
TheSecondbeinghunteddown, theFourth, which is thehalf Hunt, must be removed up over one Bell, thus.—
Thehalf Huntbeing removed, I musthuntup theSecond, as in theseChanges.—
Now theFourth, which is thehalf Hunt, being behind theExtreamBells, the next is to be anExtream Change, which may be made either between the two farthest Bells from thehalf Hunt, or the two nearest to it; and after theExtream Changeis made, thewhole Huntandhalf Huntmust behuntedas before. TheseSix-score ChangesofSecondandFourth, I have set down at large, at the end of my directions to theseChangeson five Bells.
In everySix-score, theExtream Changesmay be made either between the two farthestExtreamBells from thehalf Hunt, or between the two nearest to it, observing to make all theExtreamsin oneSix-scorealike; that is, if you make the firstExtream Changebetween the two farthestExtreamBells from thehalf Hunt, you must make all the followingExtreamsin the sameSix scorebetween the two farthestExtreamBells also; or if you make the firstExtreamin anySix-scorebetween the two nearest to thehalf Hunt, you must make all the followingExtreamsin the sameSix-scorebetween the two nearest also.
TheSix-scoreplain and singleChanges, are to beRangEight-score several wayes; for although there are butSix-scoreseveralChangeson fiveBells, yet by altering thewhole Hunt, thehalf Hunt, andExtreams, the course of theChangesare so altered, that the sameChangesdoe not come all along together in any two of those Eight-score wayes.
With onewhole Huntandhalf Hunt, theSix-score Changesare to beRang, or set down eight several wayes; one way, is byhuntingthewhole Hunt, andhalf Huntboth up; the second way, is byhuntingthewhole Huntandhalf Huntboth down; the third way, is inhuntingthewhole Huntup, and thehalf Huntdown; the fourth way, is byhuntingthewhole Huntdown, and thehalf Huntup; each of these four wayes is to beRangtwo wayes more; one is, in making theExtreamsbetweenthe two farthest Extream Bells from the half Hunt, and the other way is in making them between the two nearest; for Example, in making the treble the whole Hunt, and second the half Hunt, the Six-score are to be Rang eight several wayes (viz.)

On five Bells there are 20 Hunts, (i.e.) a whole Hunt, and half Hunt twenty times, and not one; and the same whole Hunt, and half Hunt twice, asappears by the following Figures, where they stand two and two together; one of which is the whole Hunt, and the other the half Hunt: for Example, the 2 highest Figures are 1.2 where the treble is the whole Hunt, and the second the half Hunt. The two next Figures are 1.3 where the treble is the whole Hunt, and the third the half Hunt; and likewise the two last, or lowest Figures, are 5.4 the fifth is the whole Hunt, and the fourth the half Hunt; and so of all the rest, the first Figure representing the whole Hunt, and the next to it the half Hunt.

So that there being twenty Hunts, and every one making eight Six-scores (as in the Example of treble and second) that is twenty (which are the number of Hunts;) multiplied by eight (which are the number of Six-scores made by each Hunt) does produce Eight-score several wayes to Ring the Six-score Changes.
In the Six-score Changes are comprehended the Twenty-four, and the Six Changes: The Twenty-four Changes are made between the half Hunt, and the three Extream Bells; and the Six are made between the Extream Bells alone: The half Hunt in the Six-score, is the whole Hunt in the Twenty-four; and there is one Change in the Twenty-four made every time the whole Hunt comes before and behind the Bells; and one Change in the Six made every Extream: So that the Six-score rightly understood, is nothing else but hunting the half Hunt through every Change of the Six, which makes Twenty-four Changes: and then hunting the whole Hunt through each Change of the Twenty-four, which makes Six-score; for instance, in the first Six-score before set down, where the treble is the whole Hunt, the second the half Hunt, and the 345 the Extream Bells.
I take the Extream Bells, and set down the six Changes on them thus.—
345435453543534354345Now I take the first of the six, which is 345, and set the second (which was the half Hunt in the Six-score) to it, and hunt it up behind thus.—2345324534253452Now I take the second Change of the six, which is 435, and set it directly under 345, and the second Bell to it, and hunt it down thus.—4352432542352435The second being hunted through the Change, I take the third Change in the six, which is 453, and hunt the second Bell through it, as before.—2453425345234532And in the same course, the second being hunted through each Change of the six, will make Twenty-four, one Change of the six, hunting the second Bell through it, makes four Changes; so that the six Changes by hunting the second througheach of them, will make six times four Changes (i.e.) Twenty-four. And now hunt the Treble through each of the Twenty-four Changes, and 'twill make Six-score; the first of the Twenty-four is 2345, take the Treble, and hunt it through it thus.—1234521345231452341523451Now take the next Change of the Twenty-four, which is 3245, set it under the other Change, and hunt the Treble through it thus.—3245132415321453124513245
Now I take the first of the six, which is 345, and set the second (which was the half Hunt in the Six-score) to it, and hunt it up behind thus.—
Now I take the second Change of the six, which is 435, and set it directly under 345, and the second Bell to it, and hunt it down thus.—
The second being hunted through the Change, I take the third Change in the six, which is 453, and hunt the second Bell through it, as before.—
And in the same course, the second being hunted through each Change of the six, will make Twenty-four, one Change of the six, hunting the second Bell through it, makes four Changes; so that the six Changes by hunting the second througheach of them, will make six times four Changes (i.e.) Twenty-four. And now hunt the Treble through each of the Twenty-four Changes, and 'twill make Six-score; the first of the Twenty-four is 2345, take the Treble, and hunt it through it thus.—
Now take the next Change of the Twenty-four, which is 3245, set it under the other Change, and hunt the Treble through it thus.—
And in the same manner, hunting the Treble through each Change of the Twenty-four, will produce Twenty-four times five Changes, which makes Six-score; one Change of the Twenty-four (in hunting the Treble through it) makes five Changes.
In every Six-score on 5 Bells, there are 6 Extream Changes, there being twenty Changes from one Extream to another.
It would be an endless undertaking to set down all these Peals at large, but for the convenience of the Learner, I have set down some part of several of them, which may with ease be prickt out to the end of each Peal, as the Learner pleases.
Note, That in the following Peals there is a Line drawn at each Extream Change between the Figures, to shew where the Extreams are made; as in the next Peal there is a Line drawn between the Figures just 20 Changes from the beginning of the Peal, the change next after the Line is the Extream Change, which is 14352, and so of the rest; the Change next following each Line is the Extream.
