restraining. Thus, in this biliteral, the bow-letter exerts its 

 ideal characters I and II. [See Table I. 1. a — e. II. 1. 2.] 



Hence we have the Greek K Aeiw, to shut or CLose, (in Latin 

 CLaudoj in Welch KLoi) ; XwAos-, and KyAXor, CLaudus ; 

 KuAvco, to restrain ; KoAXrj, GLue ; KaAty^, a CaLyx, cup, 

 or thing in which something is kept, or inCLuded ; KaAcus, a 

 cable; KoiAor, cavus ; and the Latin CauLa, CeLla, CosLum, 

 CuLeus, CeLo, CoLo^ CuLo, &c. And as the biUteral bD is 

 also indicative of bending round, (Table 1.2,) it gives origin to 

 the Greek KAjvo;, whence the Latin in-CLino, and the English 

 in-CLine, 



If we affix to the bow-letter the letter ^, (which here acts the 

 part of a formative) we construct the biliteral t^D (CS) which is 

 expressive o( in-CLosing, in-CLuding, in-CaSing, covering, or 

 contracting together. [See Table I. 1. a. b. II. 2.] Thus, 

 in this biliteral, the significant D exerts its ideal characters 

 I. and II. 



Hence we have the Greek KaZw, orno ; KoS/xor , ordo ; 

 KjSto), CiSta, CheSt ; KiSaoy, ivy ; the Latin CaSsis, some- 

 thing which in-CaseSy or in-C Loses, a net, trap, helmet, or 

 cap ; CaSa, a HouSe ; the English CaSe, CaSh, &c. 



If we affix to the bow-letter the letter 9, (which here is merely 

 constructive, it acting the part of a formative) we construct the 

 biliteral ^D (CP or CPIi), which is expressive of incurvation, 

 (and the various applications and modifications of that idea ; see 

 Table I. 1. 2.) Thus in this biliteral, the significant D exerts 

 its ideal character I. 



Hence we have the Greek Kt/Oor, curvus ; KafjJJrco, to 

 bend ; Kyjllos-, an inclosed garden ; the Latin CaPio, to KeeP, 

 hold, compass, or retain [See Table I. 1, II. 3, c], HaBeo 

 also having the same assigned and ideal import; CoPia, a 

 quantity collected together. [See Table 1. 1. a. II. 2. 3.] CuPio, 

 to in-CLine towards, (mentally,) or to grasp at, cherish, or 

 embrace (mentally), HoPe having the latter ideal import, as 

 ChuSe the derivative of ti'D also has ; Ca Vus ; and the English 

 CaP, CaPe, CooP, CoPe, CoVe, CaFe, and a long list of other 

 words. 



With the letter 1 affixed, (which here exerts little or no ideal 

 import, it being constructive only, or formative,) the bow-letter
