Страница 364 - Reynard's turn'd out, and o'er hedge and ditch rush Hounds, horses, and huntsmen, all hard at his brush : They run him at length, and they have him at bay, And by scent and by view cheat a long tedious way ; While, alike born for sports of the field and the course, Always sure to come thorough a stanch and fleet horse, When fairly run down the fox yields up his breath, The high-mettled racer is in at the death.
Страница 258 - Field Sports" gives the following excellent advice : — " In shooting with a stranger, who perhaps keeps his gun cocked, and muzzles usually pointed to the left, plead for the right hand station, and urge that you cannot hit a bird flying to the left : with a gamekeeper take the right hand without ceremony." In an open country give me the pointer ; in a covert one the setter would best answer my views ; and were I confined to one class, I should select the latter as being generally the most useful...
