In the instance case of the definitions and the axioms what
seems to renders this constantly concomitant exhibition necessary, and not to the exclusion
in the instance<add>case</add> of the propositions is that in the case of the definitions
and the axioms there exists not any such means of
elucidation and as has place in the case of the propositions
viz by means of the correspondent pair of reciprocal exercises affordedcomposed
by the purely verbal mode of designation in the one case
and the purely diagrammatic in the other.
In some instances the same proposition will be
susceptible of demonstration from any one of or more different or 11

The degree of closeness as between proposition and proposition
in the several rows, consequently the number capable of being
invested with convenience in each row, and the inequalities
if any, in the distances between proposition and proposition,
in each row i.e. between and kite, (tail or tails included.)
will depend upon the room required of any necessary to be left
in the each inferior row for the tails belonging to the several kites ranged with several superior rows. For the construction of such a Table the most convenient course, it is believed, that could be taken would be leaving determinedsettle the scale of magnitude, as determined i.e. by the size of the settledtype from the several kites separately, and then having ready a sheet of paper of the proposed 1 — size and dimensions, attach them to it in rows; the mode of attachment temporary, [1] [1]till every thing is finally settled
