Fig. 7. 
In the place of four strong high partials (the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 
9th), we have the same resonance now represented only by one 
strong low partial, the 3rd ; and it is clear, from what has been 
already said, that the former must afford much the more trust- 
worthy basis for computing the resonance. 
Next let us take two of Pipping’s curves of Swedish a (not 
unlike Dutch aa), sung at two pitches, differing by an octave. The 
first one, fig. 8, is sung at 256 v.d. 
Fig. 8. 
So far as this analysis shows, there is only one resonance. But 
the same vowel was also sung at 128 v.d. (fig. 9).
