[8]
κἂν μὲν δέχηται, δῆλον ὅτι περιτιθέναι δεῖ τὸν κεκρύφαλον: ἐὰν δὲ μὴ ὑποχάσκῃ, ἔχοντα δεῖ πρὸς τοῖς ὀδοῦσι τὸν χαλινὸν τὸν μέγαν δάκτυλον τῆς ἀριστερᾶς χειρὸς εἴσω τῆς γνάθου τῷ ἵππῳ ποιῆσαι. οἱ γὰρ πολλοὶ τούτου γιγνομένου χαλῶσι τὸ στόμα. ἢν δὲ μηδ᾽ οὕτω δέχηται, πιεσάτω τὸ χεῖλος περὶ τῷ κυνόδοντι: καὶ πάνυ τινὲς ὀλίγοι οὐ δέχονται τοῦτο πάσχοντες.
