Note (b.) — APPENDIX. No. VI.
Reading edition
(b) The numeral two is the most general word, and may be assimilated in 2, 3, 8, 9, 4, 5, 1, 6, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17. There is little difference between the numerals two and five in most of these, and five in 15 and 16, precisely answers to two in 1 and 2.
