Chrest. Tab. II Conclusion

purpose. Not he indeed: for, too soon, whenever it is for his
peace use will he find that it snatched out of his hands
and thrown sent into the algebraic mill wardrobe, in which out of which
it will not come, without having stampt upon it a
new name, constituted made out of a single letter of the alphabet
and that a small one: and so with regard to
the several all the other Geometric personages, entities for giving names to some of which, nothing
less than three or even more than three of these letters
apiece will suffice.

Of so troublesome a repetition reduplication of labour, especially
in on a branch of the field of art and science of in which saving
of labour by means of the abbreviative and condensative forms
saving of labour is acknowledged to be the grand and acknowledged instrument
wherein consists the use? to what cause is the usage that
has taken place in this matter has taken place, to what cause is it to be ascribed?
To find any an answer to this question the new search that
has been made in the works of mathematicians has not
been attended with success successful.

One effect seems inseparably to follow of course
from the very nature of which the two modes the algebraic mode of expression
and that is that the mode of expression which in the
geometrical mode is by the references to the individual
diagram confined to that individual diagram, and
thus reduced down narrowed, to the minimum or maximum shall we
call it of narrowness is to in the algebraic mode and
for the opposite reason generalized or as a logician to use an expression
more conformable to logi the language of logicians, universalized:
and to this circumstance in the contemplation of this effect without our being
always if ever fully aware of it may frequently perhaps
be found the unperceived cause not less real how imperfectly soever perceived
cause of the trouble taken to translate the expr preparatory and
demonstrative part of the
proposition out of
the geometrical form
into the algebraic.
