Knowing these Nine Laws in the above _order_, he can discuss them one
after the other. When he has finished his explanation of the reduction
of the three Forms of Motion [Concentric, Poise, and Eccentric] to the
Law of Correspondence, he can proceed to the consideration of the
sub-topics under Velocity, and so on. When he has fixed the other of his
topics in mind, he has a mental chart or map to guide him in his
exposition, and similarly in other cases.
EXERCISE.
Learn some of the "Antidotes," and at least two of the following series.
Do _not_ learn the extracts from Quain's Anatomy unless you understand
what is meant, or are a medical student.
DISTANCES OF PLANETS FROM THE SUN.

EXTRACTS FROM QUAIN'S ANATOMY.
TO BE STUDIED BY NONE BUT MEDICAL STUDENTS.
"The Branches of the External Carotid Artery are eight in number,
_viz._, three directed forwards, the superior thyroid, the lingual, and
the facial; two directed backwards, the occipital and the posterior
auricular; and three extending upwards, the ascending pharyngeal branch,
together with the temporal and internal maxillary, the two terminal
branches into which the artery divides."
Dissect, or study a model or diagram of these branch arteries, and then
the facts are easily learned by means of Correlations:--
CAROTID ... rotten ... ruinous ... IVY (eight branches)
... growth ... advance ... go forwards ...
FORWARDS ... lead forwards ... conduct ... ductless ... THYROID
... spheroid ... earth ... many languages ... LINGUAL
