to bée as it were naturally distilled and powred into these kinde of Dogges For they wyll not pause or breath from their pursute vntill such tyme as they bée apprehended and taken which committed the facte The owners of such houndes vse to kéepe them in close and darke channells in the day time and let them lose at liberty in the night season to th' intent that they myght with more courage and boldnesse practise to follow the fellon in the euening and solitarie houres of darkenesse when such yll disposed varlots are principally purposed to play theyr impudent pageants imprudent pranckes These houndes vpon whom this present portion of our treatise runneth when they are to follow such fellowes as we haue before rehersed vse not that liberty to raunge at wil which they haue otherwise when they are in game except vpon necessary occasion wheron dependeth an vrgent and effectuall perswasion when such purloy●●●s make spéedy way in slight● but beyng restrained and dr●wne backe from running at randon with the leasse the ende whereof the owner holding in his hand is led guyded and directed with such swiftnesse and slownesse whether he go on foote or whether be ryde on horsebacke as he himselfe in hart would wishe for the more easie apprehension of these venturous varlots In the borders of England Scotland the often and accustomed stealing of cattell so procuring these kinde of Dogges are very much vsed and they are taught and trayned vp first of all to hunt cattell as well of the smaller as of the greater grouth and afterwardes that qualitie relinquished and lefte they are learned to pursue such pestilent persons as plant theyr pleasure in such practises of purloyning as we haue already declared Of this kinde there is none that taketh the water naturally except it please you so to suppose of them whych follow the Otter which sometimes haunte the lande and sometime vseth the water And yet neuerthelesse all the kind of them boyling and broyling with gréedy desire of the pray which by swymming passeth through ryuer and flood plung amyds the water and passe the streame with their pawes● But this propertie procéedeth from an earnest desire wherwith they be inflamed rather then from any inclination issuyng from the ordinance and appoyntment of nature And albeit some of this sort in English be called Brache in Scottishe Rache the cause hereof resteth in the shée sex and not in the generall kinde For we English men call bytches belonging to the hunting kinde of Dogges by the tearme aboue mentioned To bée short it is proper to the nature of ho●nors some to kéepe silence in hunting vntill such tyme as there is 〈◊〉 offered Othersome so 〈◊〉 as they smell out the place where the beast ●urck●th so bewray it immediatly by their importunate barcking notwithstanding it be farre at many furlungs cowchyng close in his cabbyn And these Dogges the younger they be the more wantonly barke they and the more liberally yet oftimes without necessitie so that in them by reason of theyr young yeares and want of practise small certaintie is to be reposed For continaunce of tyme and experience in game ministreth to these houndes not onely cunning in running but also as in the rest an assured foresight what is to bee done principally being acquainted with their masters watch wordes eyther in reuoking ● imboldening them to serue the game Of the Dogge called the Gasehounde in Latine Agasaeus THis kinde of Dogge which pursueth by the eye preuayleth little or neuer a whit by any benefite of the nose that is by smelling but excelleth in perspicuitie and sharpenesse of sight altogether by the vertue whereof being singuler and notable it hunteth the Foxe and in the Hare Thys Dogge will ●h●e●e and seperate any beast from among a great flocke or hea●de and such a one will it take by election as is not lancke leane and hollow but well spred smoothe full fatte and round it followes by the direction of the eye-sight which in déede is cléere constant and not vncertaine if a beast be wounded and gone all ●ay this Dogge ●eeketh after it by the stedfastnes of the eye if it chaunce peraduenture to returne bée mingled with the residue of the flocke this Dogge spyeth it out by the vertue of his eye leauing the rest of the cattell vntouched and after he hath set sure sight vpō it he seperateth it from among the company and hauing so done neuer ceaseth vntill he haue wearyed the Beast to death Our countrey men call this dogge Agasaeum A gasehounde because the beames of his sight are so stedfastly setled and vnmoueably fastened These Dogges are much and vsually occupyed in the Northern partes of England more then in the Southern parts in ●caldy landes rather then in bushy and woody places horsemen vse them more then footemen to th' intent that they might prouoke their horses to a swift galloppe wherwith they are more delighted then with the pray it selfe and that they myght accustome theyr horse to leape ouer hedges ditches without stoppe or stumble without harme or hassard without doubt or daunger and so escape with safegard of lyfe And to the ende that the ryders themselues when necessitie so constrained and the feare of further mischiefe inforced myght saue themselues vndamnifyed and preuent each perilous tempest by preparing speedy flight or else by swift pursute made vpon theyr enimyes myght both ouertake them encounter with them and make a slaughter of them accordingly But if it fortune so at any time that this Dogge take a wrong way the master making some vsuall signe and familiar token he returneth forthwith and taketh the right and ready trace beginning his chase a fresh with a cleare voyce and a swift foote followeth the game with as much courage and nimblenesse as he he did at the first Of the Dogge called the Grehounde in Latine Leporarius THere is another kinde of Dogge which for his incredible swiftnesse is called Leporarius a Grehounde because the principall seruice of them dependeth and consisteth in starting and hunting the hare which Dogges likewyse are indued with no lesse strength then lightnes in maintenance of the game in seruing the chase in taking the Bucke the Harte the Dowe the Foxe and other beastes of semblable kinde ordained for the game of hunting But more or lesse each one according to the measure and proportion of theyr desire and as might and habilitie of theyr bodyes will permit and suffer For it is a spare and bare kinde of Dogge of fleshe but not of bone some are of a greater sorte and some of a lesser some are smooth skynned some are curled the bigger therfore are appoynted to hunt the bigger beasts the smaller serue to hunt the smaller accordingly The nature of these dogges I finde to be wonderful by the testimoniall of histories For as Iohn Froisart the Historyographer in his 4. lib. reporteth A Grehound of King Richard the second that wore the Crowne and bare the Scepter of the Realme of England neuer knowing any man beside the kings person whē Henry Duke of Lancaster came to the castle of Flinte to take King Richarde The Dogge forsaking his former Lord master came to Duke Henry fawned vpon him with such resemblaunces of goodwyll and conceaued affection as he fauoured King Richarde before
replenished and whē they haue fed themselues full of fleshe then returne they to the water from whence they came But albeit so much be graunted that this Beauer is a dogge yet it is to be noted that we recken it not in the beadrowe of Englishe dogges as we haue done the rest The sea Calfe in like maner which our country mē for brenitie sake call a Séele other more largely name a Sea Vele maketh a spoyle of fishes betwéene rockes and banckes but it is not accounted in the catalogue or nūber of our Englishe dogges notwithstanding we call it by the name of a Sea dogge or a sea Calfe And thus much for our dogges of the second sort called in Latine Aucupatorij seruing to take fowle either by land or water ¶ A Diall pertaining to the second Section Dogges seruing the disport of fowling● are diuided into Land spaniele Setters called in latine Canes Aucupatorij Water spaniels or finders called in latine Canes Aucupatorij The fisher is not of their number but seuerall The thirde Section of this abridgement NOwe followeth in due order and conuenient place our Englishe Dogges of the thirde gentle kinde what they are called to what vse they serue and what sort of people plant their pleasure in thē which because they néede no curious canuastings and nye syfting wee meane to bee so much the briefer Of the delicate neate and pretty kind of dogges called the Spaniel gentle or the comforter in Latine Melitaeus or Fotor THere is besides those which wée haue already deliuered another sort of gentle dogges in this our Englishe soyle but exempted from the order of the residue the Dogges of this kinde doth Callimachus call Melitaeos of the Iseland Melita in the sea of Sicily which at this day is named Malta an Iseland in deede famous and reno●med with couragious aud puisaunt souldiours valliauntly lighting vnder the banner of Christ their vnconquerable captain● where this kind of dogges had their principall beginning These dogges are litle pre●ty proper and fyne and sought for to satisfie the delicatenesse of daintie dames and wanton womens wills instrumentes of folly for them to play and dally withall to try●●e away the treasure of time to withdraw their mindes from more commendable exercises and to content their corrupted concupiscences with vaine disport A selly shift to shunne yrcksome ydlnesse These puppies the smaller they be the more pleasure they prouoke as more méete play fellowes for minsing mistrisses to beare in their bosoms to kéepe company withal in their chambers to succour with sléepe in bed and nourishe with meate at bourde to lay in their lappes and licke their lippes as they ryde in their waggons and good reason it should be so for coursnesse with fynenesse hath no fellowship but featnesse with neatenesse hath neighbourhood enough That plausible prouerbe verified vpon a Tyraunt namely that he loued his sowe better then his sonne may well be applyed to these kinde of people who delight more in dogges that are depriued of all possibility of reason then they doe in children that be capeable of wisedome and iudgement But this abuse peraduenture raigneth where there hath bene long lacke of issue or elsewhere barrennes is the best blossome of bewty The vertue which remaineth in the Spainell gentle otherwise called the comforter NOtwithstanding many make much of those pretty puppies called Spaniels gentle yet if the question were demaunded what propertie in them they saye which shoulde make them so acceptable and precious in their sight I doubt their aunswere would be long a coyning But seeing it was our intent to trauaile in this treatise so that the reader might reape some benefite by his reading we will communicate vnto you such coniectures as are grounded vpon reason And though some suppose that such dogges are fyt for no seruice I dare say by their leaues they be in a wrong boxe Among all other qualities therfore of nature which be knowne for some conditions are couered with continuall and thicke clouds that the eye of our capacities can not pearse through thē we find that these litle dogs are good to asswage the sicknesse of the stomacke being oftentimes thervnto applyed as a plaster preseruatiue or borne in the bosom of the diseased and weake person which effect is performed by theyr moderate heate Moreouer the disease and sicknesse chaungeth his place and entreth though it be not precisely marcked into the dogge which to be no vntruth experience can testify for these kinde of dogges sometimes fall sicke and somtime die without any harme outwardly inforced which is an argument that the disease of the gentleman or gentlewoman or owner whatsoeuer entreth into the dogge by the operation of heate intermingled and infected And thus haue I hetherto handled dogges of a gentle kinde whom I haue comprehended in a triple diuisiō Now it remaineth that I annex in due order such dogges as be of a more homely kinde A Diall pertaining to the thirde Section In the third section is cōtained one kind of dog which is called the Spaniell gentle or the cōforter It is also called A chamber cōpanion generally called Canie delicatus A pleasaunt play fellow generally called Canie delicatus A pretty worme generally called Canie delicatus The fourth Section of this discourse Dogges of a course kind seruing for many necessary vses called in Latine Canes rustici and first of the shepherds dogge called in Latine Canis Pastoralis Dogges of the courser sort are These two are the principall The shepherds dogge The mastiue or Bandogge THe first kinde namely the shepherds hounde is very necessarye and profitable for the auoyding of harmes and inconueniences which may come to men by the meanes of beastes The second sort serue to succour against the snares and attemptes of mischiefous men Our shepherdes dogge is not huge vaste and bigge but of an indifferent stature and growth because it hath not to deale with the bloudthyrsty wolf sythence there be none in England which happy and fortunate benefite is to be ascribed to the puisaunt Prince Edgar who to thintent that the whole countrey myght be euacuated and quite cleered from wolfes charged commaunded the welshemē who were pestered with these butcherly beastes aboue measure to paye him yearely tribute which was n●te the wisedome of the King thrée hundred Wolfes Some there be which write that Ludwall Prince of Wales paide yéerely to King Edgar three hundred wolfes in the name of an exaction as we haue sayd before And that by the meanes hereof within the compasse and tearme of foure yeares none of those noysome and pestilent Beastes were left in the coastes of England and Wales This Edgar wore the Crowne royall and bare the Scepter imperiall of this kingdome about the yeere of our Lorde nyne hundred fifty nyne Synce which time we réede that no Wolfe hath bene seene in England bred within the bounds and borders of this countrey mary there haue bene diuers brought ouer from
beyonde the seas for gréedynesse of gaine and to make money for gasing and gaping staring and standing to sée them being a straunge beast rare and seldom séene in England But to returne to our shepherds dogge This dogge either at the hearing of his masters voyce or at the wagging and whisteling in his fist or at his shrill and horse hissing bringeth the wandring weathers and straying shéepe into the selfe same place where his masters will and wishe is to haue thē wherby the shepherd reapeth this benefite namely that with litle labour and no toyle or mouing of his féete he may rule and guide his flocke according to his owne desire either to haue them go forward or to stand still or to drawe backward or to turne this way or to take that way For it is not in Englande as it is in Fraunce as it is in Flaunders as it is in Syria as it is in Tartaria where the shéepe follow the shepherd for héere in our country the shéepherd followeth the sheepe And somtimes the straying shéepe when no dogge runneth before them nor goeth about beside them gather themselues together in a flocke when they héere the shéepherd whistle in his fist for feare of the Dogge as I imagine remembring this if vnreasonable creatures may be reported to haue memory that the Dogge commonly runneth out at his masters warrant which is his whistle This haue we oftentimes diligently marcked in taking our iourney from towne to towne when wée haue hard a shéepherd whistle we haue rayned in our horse and stoode styll a space to see the proofe and triall of this matter Furthermore with this dogge doth the shéepherd take sheepe for the slaughter and to be healed if they be sicke no hurt or harme in the world done to the simple creature Of the mastiue or Bandogge called in Latine V●llaticus or Cathenarius THis kinde of Dogge called a mas●yue or Bandogge is vaste huge stubborne ougly and eager of a heuy and hurthenous body and therfore but of litle swiftnesse terrible and frightfull to beholde and more fearce and fell then any Arcadian curre notwithstāding they are sayd to haue their generation of the violent Lyon. They are called V●llatici because they are appoynted to watche and kéepe farme places and coūtry cotages sequestred from commō recourse and not abutting vpon other houses by reason of distaunce when there is any feare conceaued of théefes robbers spoylers and nightwanderers They are seruiceable against the Foxe and the Badger to driue wilde and tame swyne out of Medowes pastures glebelandes and places planted with fruite to bayte and take the bull by the eare when occasion so requireth One dogge or two at the vttermost sufficient for that purpose be the bull neuer so monsterous neuer so fearce neuer so furious neuer so s●earne neuer so vntameable For it is a kinde of dogge capeable of courage violent and valiaunt striking could fea●e into the harts of men but standing in feare of no man in so much that no weapons will make him shrincke nor abridge his boldnes Our Englishe men to th'intent intent that theyr dogges might be the more fell and fear●e assist nature with arte vse and custome for they teach theyr dogges to baite the Beare to baite the Bull and other such like cruell and bloudy beastes appointing an ouerseer of the game without any collar to defend theyr throtes and oftentimes they traine them vp in fighting and wrestling with a man hauing for the safegarde of his lyfe eyther a Pikestaffe a clubbe or a sworde and by vsing them to ●uch exercises as these thoy● dogges become more sturdy and strong The force which is in them surmounteth all beleefe the fast holde which they take with their téeth excéedeth all credit three of them against a Beare fowre against a Lyon are sufficient both to try masteryes with them and vtterly to ouermatch them Which thing Henry the seuenth of that name King of England a Prince both politique warl●ke perceauing on a certaine time as the report runneth commaunded all such dogges how many soeuer they were in number should be hanged beyng deepely displeased and conceauing great disdaine that an yll fauoured rascall curre should with such violent villany assault the valiaunt Lyon king of all beastes An example for all subiectes worthy remembraunce to admonishe them that it is no aduantage to them to rebell against the regiment of their ruler but to kéepe them within the limits of Loyaltie I réede an history aunswerable to this of the selso same Henry who hauing a notable and an excellent fayre Falcon it fortuned that the kings Falcon●rs in the presence and hearing of his grace highly commended his Maiesties Falcon saying that it feared not to intermeddle with an Eagle it was so venturous a byrde and so mighty which when the King harde he charged that the Falcon should be killed without delay for the selfe same reason as it may seeme which was rehersed in the cōclusion of the former history concerning the same king This dogge is called in like maner Cathenarius a Cathena of the chaine wherwith he is tyed at the gates in the day time least beyng lose he should doe much mischiefe and yet might giue occasion of feare and terror by his bigge barcking And albeit Cicero in his oration had Pro.
