lead 2 n Here and there are long uncertain channels running in any direction, giving the impression that the whole stupendous Puzzle's frame had just been slightly shaken. It seems as if this shaking had moved some of the pieces apart which before were touching, thus leaving lines of waterways that will be short or interminably long - winding in and out amongst the pans in a mazy many-cornered straggling, and of the most uneven widths.
