[181] Not of "good time" means in the old sporting vocabulary an old track, not a recent one.

[182] G. de F. calls the track of deer on grass "foulées," from which the modern "foil," "stepping on grass," is derived.

[183] A whole line is missing here in our MS. The words in brackets are taken from the Shirley MS. It runs: "Affter I wal telle yowe a man howe he shal speke amonge good hunters of y offyce of venerye."

[184] The word "work" has been omitted. "Et bien ouvrer subtilement" (G. de F. p. 134).

[185] Brow, bay, and tray tines. See Appendix: Antler.

[186] In Shirley MS. it is "left."

[187] Instead of this original passage G. de F. says: "For if he had on one side ten points and on the other only one, it should be called summed of twenty" (p. 135).

[188] G. de F. has "spur" instead.

[189] Burr, mule, from the Fr. meule.

[190] Dew claws.
