Conjectural History
Alegomorphics simpler
and easier
than morphoscopics.
In the case of alegomorphics, small is the number
of words small the length of research and description that suffice
for the delivery of it giving expression indication: more considerable, much more — is that
which is necessary in the case of morphoscopics.
In alegomorphics
abbreviation the
instrument of employed.
In the case language of alegomorphics, of all
that is done over and above what is done in ordinary, abbreviation
is the instrument. 1 First degree of abbreviation, abbreviation — the characters employed in arithmetic. 2. Ulterior
and mixt second degree of abbreviation, that of which algebra —
by the characters employed in it algebra are the instruments is the instrument
Here then the history
the course taken is
plain & obvious — Somebody
thought of employing
these marks
instead of for abbreviation
— Arabic
numerals more apt
than Roman
Here then the history, the course taken — the course by of
the pursuing pursuant of which the art and science so denominated was the result —
is plain and obvious To save time the, effect a saving in respect of
the articles employed in the process of w are made of written
language — that is to say time, labour, and materials, some body
hit upon the expedient of employing those the marks at present employed in
use for this purpose. By the Romans with their numerals, this desirable
effect was produced in a certain degree of aptitude: by the Arabians
with their numerals in a much superior degree of aptitude: which
was earliest invoked, and whether the m of labour had before he produced of the
labour and g and labour of the earliest — these are questions
the answer to which do not present themselves: not at any rate in the instant, as
little does any hope of coming at them in time future.
☞ Go on to speak of Morphoscopics, considered in this point of
view.
