_From a given point to draw out a Radical Member to a given length._
Let A or his ancestors be the given point, and an A s s the given length;
it is required to draw out upon the point of his ancestors a Radical
member equal to an A s s.
[Illustration]
Connect the A s s with A, his ancestors.
On the A s s and A his ancestors, describe an independent member S R I,
Sir Robert Inglis.
Then with S R I, Sir Robert Inglis, draw out the A s s to G L and S A, or
great literary and scientific attainments.
And with S R I, Sir Robert Inglis, let R Roebuck, be got into a line upon
A, his ancestors.
With the A s s in the middle, describe the circulation of T N, or "Times"
newspaper.
And with SRI, Sir Robert Inglis, as the centre, describe the Circle of the
H of C, or House of Commons.
Then R A, or Roebuck on his ancestors, equals an A s s.
For because the A s s was in the middle of T N, or "Times" newspaper.
Therefore the rhodomontade of G L and S A, or great literary and
scientific attainments, was equal to the braying of an A s s.
And because S R I, or Sir Robert Inglis, was in the centre of H C, or
House of Commons.
Therefore S R I on G L and S A, or Sir Robert Inglis on the great literary
and scientific attainments, was only to be equalled by S R I and R, or Sir
Robert Inglis and Roebuck.
But Sir R I is always equal to himself.
Therefore the remainder, A R, or Roebuck on his ancestors, is equal to the
remaining G L and S A, or great literary and scientific attainments.
But G L and S A, or the great literary and scientific attainments, have
been shown to be equal to those of an A s s.
And therefore R A, or Roebuck on his ancestors, is equal to an A s s.
Wherefore, from a given point, A, his ancestors, has been drawn out a
Radical member, R, Roebuck, equal to an A s s.
