Founded on The Leading Characteristics of The Horse.

The Three Fundamental Principles of my Theory

FIRST. That he is so constituted by nature that he will not offer resistance to any demand made of him which he fully comprehends, if made in a way consistent with the laws of his nature.

SECOND. That he has no consciousness of his strength beyond his experience, and can be handled according to our will, without force.

THIRD. That we can, in compliance with the laws of his nature by which he examines all things new to him, take any object, however frightful, around, over or on him, that does not inflict pain, without causing him to fear.
