LH—With RH take off the two loops on 7 and m simultaneously ; 
i. e., hold the two strings emerging from the fork of 7 and m by 
means of Ri and ¢. Place these 
two loops in close apposition, so as 
to make one doubled loop of them, 
and replace this same doubled loop 
on 7 and m. 
RH.—Similarly. 
684. Eagle's nest in the silk- 
cotton tree. War. (fig. 301). 
Start with completed figure of 
silk-cotton tree. 
BH.—Remove wi ¢ string, and 
place it, distally to double ra @ 
string, behind 7. Place ra 7 string 
in front of 7 but behind m, distally 
to double ul m string, so as to 
emerge on ra side of m. 
BH.—¥xchange double loops on backs of ¢ and m with correspond- 
ing loops on opposite hand. 
LH.—With Ri and f, remove simultaneously the 7 and m single 
loops, i. e., by catching hold of the two strings from the distal side 
Fre. 300.—Silk-cotton tree. (Warrau.) 
Fic, 301.—Eagle’s nest in silk-cotton tree. (Warrau.) 
as they emerge from between the fork of i and m; slip the 7 and m 
out of their surrounding double-loop, which is now allowed to drop 
into the palm, and replace on ¢ and mm the single loops. 
RH—Similarly. ; 
685. Four eaglets in nest in silk-cotton tree. War. (fig. 302). 
Start with completed figure of eagle’s nest in silk-cotton tree.
