(3) That the receding lines on a levelwith the eye are horizontal. The eye level determines the slant ofthe lines. The further the receding lines above or beh)w the levelof the eye the more they slant. In Fig. 18 observe that the receding lines above and belowthe eye level ol)ey this law the same as in the boxes. They slantdownward and upward to the level of the eye. Fig. 18, and all similar buildings, may be drawn as follows:(I) Draw the body part of the building the same as the box.
