Footnote 68
Supp. Prop., §42. See fig. 1, Plate I. See
also fig. 17, Plate VI. Let Eb = 12, bc = 1; also E'b'
= 12, b'c' = 2; then EB = 12 BC, E'B = 6 BC; therefore EE' =
6 BC. If EE' = 60 feet, then BC = 1/6 EE' = 10 feet. To get
the whole height, add the height fo the eye. The last part of the
article, beginning `For other poyntis', is altogether corrupt in the MS.
