Accordingly, at the moment of mounting, the rider should take care to worry
						him as little as possible; and when he is mounted, he should let him stand
						still longer than is otherwise usual, and then direct him to go by the most
						gentle aids. Then let him begin at a very slow pace and increase the speed
						with the same gentle help, so that the horse will not be aware of the
						transition to a quicker motion. Any sudden sign disturbs a spirited horse, just as sudden sights and sounds
						and sensations disturb a man. It is important to realise that a horse too is
						flurried by anything sudden.
