Yes. Ring the composition backwards. Here's a slightly
transposed version of it backwards.
5040 Double Norwich Court Bob Major
234567 F V O
----------------
352764 x
765423 * x x
426357 x x
----------------
15 part
ss at * in parts 4, 9 and 14
The calling positions mean as follows:
F = 3 and 3 1/2 (tenor becomes 4ths place bell at 3)
V = 4 and 4 1/2 (tenor becomes 5ths place bell at 4)
O = 6 and 6 1/2 (tenor becomes 3rds place bell at 6)
As with the previous composition, the tenor is unaffected
throughout. To get a composition that is predominately
bobs, it is necessary to have quite a lot of the composition
with split tenors. This is because there is only one
calling position (for bobs) per course that keep the tenors
together.
