\f. Transfer this last sum to the right hand 4 places. This sum so 

 transferred is now the upper number in the Rank of the Square. 



%'. Add the last found figure of the Root to the upper number in 

 the Rank of the Latus, and write the sum opposite to and immediately 

 above it. 



<ir r/ . Transfer this sum to the right hand 5 places. This sum so 

 transferred is now the upper number in the Rank of the Latus. 



Then seek the greatest number with the following conditions : 



f. That if this sought number be written in the interstice to the 

 right hand of the upper number in the Rank of the Latus. 



a" . And this sought number be multiplied into the whole figures now 

 uppermost in the Rank of the Latus, and the product written in the Rank 

 of the Square opposite to the next period of the given number, which 

 stands in the Rank of the number, or Pulpit Diagram, and immediately 

 above the upper number in the Rank of the Square. 



r" . And the figures of this product and that upper number be in 

 this situation added together, and the sum written opposite to and imme- 

 diately above the product. 



v" . And the sought number be multiplied into this sum, and the 

 product written in the Rank of the Cube opposite to the next period
