[r-t] Fifield Doubles

[edward martin]

I don't know what it is officially supposed to be but you can get a
true 120 by ringing 3rds instead of 5ths whenever any one particular
bell is turned from the lead by treble.
ie :
p = 5.1.125.3.5.3.125.1.5.123,
b = 5.1.125.3.5.3.125.1.3.123

120 in three parts,
call 2 before 3 times:
2345
4532
3254
2534 -
