[274] Balbi, A., _L'Atlas Eth._, Vol. I. p. 226. In Balbi's text 7 and 8
are ansposed. _Taru_ for 5 is probably a misprint for _tana_.

scales are from the same page of this work.
[286] Codrington, _Melanesian Languages_, p. 235. The next four scales are
from the same page. Perhaps the meanings of the words for 6 to 9 are more
properly "more 1," "more 2," etc. Codrington merely indicates their
significations in a general way.
[287] Hale, _Ethnography and Philology_, p. 429. The meanings of 6 to 9 in
this and the preceding are my conjectures.
