To the cord[*] let him attach a long, big stone, so that the net may not pull away when the hare is inside. Let him make his line long and high,[*] so that the hare may not jump over.

When it comes to tracking the hare, he must not be too zealous. To do everything possible to effect a quick capture shows perseverance, but is not hunting.[*]

Let him stretch the hayes on level ground and put the road-nets[*] in roads and from game tracks into the adjacent ground, fastening down the (lower) cords to the ground, joining the elbows, fixing the stakes between the selvedges,[*] putting the ends on the top of the stakes and stopping the byways.
