Axial rays from the •microscope and from the drawing sur- face (Ch. V). Camera Lucida. A section of the quadrangular prism showing the course of the rays in the ptism from the microscope to the eye. As the rays are twice reflected, they have the same relation on entering the eye that they would have by looking directly into the ocular. A B.

V.) in position, and turn the oc- ular around if necessary so that the broad flat surface may face directly upward, as shown in Fig. 92. Elevate the microscope by putting a block under the base, so that the perpendicular distance from the upper surface of the camera lucida to the table is 250 mm. (§ 153). Place some white pa
