Swishing at a Rasper, 7. Returning Home in Triumph. Title continues:In looking over that very amusing work call'd Indispensable accomplishments sign'd Billesdon Coplow with which I was very much delighted but could not forbear remarking that he consider'd it only necessary that the horse should come well into the next field, charge and ox fence, go in and out clever, face a brook & swish at a rasper he does not mention that to do all that kind of thing it is necessary he should be mounted by a rider of judgment and courage. I have undertaken beging[sic] his pardon to mount well qualified horses with unqualified riders and to shew the figure those horses are likely to cut during the day.
