(To draw a line perpendicular to and bisecting the line joining two given points, it is usual to describe two arcs from the two given points as centres with a common radius, intersecting each other in two points ; the line passing through the intersecting points is the line required. In this construction the space contained by the intersecting arcs is called ‘ Timi ’, a fish, on account of its form).
