The draught must therefore be enlarged till the plains be sufficiently wide for this purpose. If the spaces be doubled, that is, by making every 1 in the draught, 2, every 2, 4, every 3, 6, and every 4, 8, then the smallest of the plain spaces will consist of four splits, which will be sufficiently wide for any reed below a 10 or...
