To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As an exercise, we recommend what is called the volte, (17) since ithabituates the animal to turn to either hand; while a variation in theorder of the turn is good as involving an equalisation of both sides ofthe mouth, in first one, and then the other half of the exercise. (18)But of the two we commend the oval form of the volte rather than thecircular; for the horse, being already sated with the straight course, will be all the more ready to turn, and will be practised at once inthe straight ...course and in wheeling. At the curve, he should be heldup, (19) because it is neither easy nor indeed safe when the horse isat full speed to turn sharp, especially if the ground is broken (20) orslippery.
