to "Doge,"--as well as
"Cooley" to "The." There are, however, no words which my Pupils cannot
soon learn to correlate together with the greatest readiness, as:

"A" (1) First Letter (1) First Mate (3) Ship (3) "ANCHOR"
" (1) Aviary (3) Bird (3) Flew (1) Fluke (1) ----
"B" (1) Bee (3) Sting (1) Sharp Pain (1) Sharp Horns (1) "BULL"
" (1) Below (1) Bellow (3) ----
"C" (1) Sea (3) Ocean Steamer (1) Cabin (1) "CAB"
"D" (1) "D.D." (1) Clerical Title (1) Venetian Title (1) "DOGE"
"COOLEY" (1) Coolly Articulated (1) Definite Article (1) "THE"

1. What must we do in order to make the memory retain the
impression?
2. Does my Art do this?
3. Into what do I translate every case of Synthesis?
4. What does it then become?
5. What is a correlation?
6. Are correlations difficult to make?

All possible cases to be memorised can be reduced to (1) ISOLATED FACTS,
where each fact is correlated to some fact in its surroundings through
which you must think as the _Best Known_, in order to recall it--many
instances will be given in this lesson:--or, (2) SERIAL FACTS, which
must be remembered in the _exact order_ in which they were presented to
the mind--illustrated by many examples in this Lesson.

NEVER FORGET that this System serves two distinct purposes: (1) That it
is a Device for memorising any Isolated Fact or Serial Facts by means of
mere Analysis, otherwise called Instantaneous Assimilation or memorised
Correlations, as well as by other means. (2) And that by memorising and
repeating for a considerable period Analytic Series, and especially by
_making_ and _memorising_ one's own Correlations, it is an unequalled
system of Memory-TRAINING. Let the ambitious Pupil =learn as many
examples as I give in the lessons in order to so strengthen his natural
memory that he will no longer have to use the _device_ for memorising,
his natural memory permanently retaining all he desires to remember=.
This result comes only to those who carry out ALL the directions with
genuine alacrity--not shirking one of them.

1. Do all persons find them easy?
2. What persons do not?
3. Can such persons become expert in making them?
4. How?
5. Make an original correlation of your own between these extremes.
6. To what may all possible cases to be remembered be reduced?
7. What are Isolated facts?
