This sorte is in two fourmes co{m}menly. The one by lynes, and the other without lynes: in that y^t hath lynes, the lynes do stande for the order of places: and in y^t that hath no lynes, there must be sette in theyr stede so many counters as shall nede, for eche lyne one, and they shall supplye the stede of the lynes. _S._ By examples I shuld better p{er}ceaue your meanynge. _M._ For example of the [*117a.] ly[*]nes: ----1-0-0-0-0-0-- ----1-0-0-0-0---- -X--1-0-0-0------ ----1-0-0-------- ----1-0---------- ----1------------ [Sidenote: Numeration.]
