Abstract Curves. Directions. (a). In the centre of the allotted space draw a vertical line as long as the spacewill admit, after jnakiug due al-lowance for margin. Divide thisline into fourths, and draw thebalancing cnrves as in the cop3. {h). If the cnrves at &, instead ofthose at a, are used, begin in justthe same n)anner, but modify thecurves as they are modified in thecopy. It will thus be seen howeasy a matter it is to change thecharacter of the result by varyingthe nund)oi- of part,; into which the a:;i3 i:, divided, andthe points of division through which the cunes are VARIOUS EXERCISES. 145 Exercises for Blank Pages 17 and 18. Directions. — Draw a vertical line, divitling the blank page(17) into two equal parts. In the left-hand half draw that oneof the forms belonging to Ex. XXXII. which has not beenii^ed. Enlarge it to till the whole space. In the right-handhalf reproduce Ex. XXIX., enlarging it to fill the whole of these exercises you can, if you think best, use anyothers, few or many, to fill the page; but, whatever forms areused, let them be drawn large. Draw a vertical line dividing the blank page (18) so as toplace two-thirds of the page to the left of the line. Draw ahorizontal line dividing the right third into halves. In theleft-hand space draw Ex. XX., Ex. XXL, or XXII., withadded design, from memory. Enlarge so as to fill the two-thirds of the page. Before putting the drawing into the book,the pupil may execute it as many times as lie chooses; but,after he begin
