rather imperfect control over the muscles in riding a fractious horse or
walking a narrow beam aloft; with large Cautiousness, is timid in

naturally clumsy; with large Cautiousness, is afraid to walk over water,

VERY SMALL.--Can hardly stand erect, and has very little control over the
muscles: p. 195.

LARGE.--Can discern and match colors by the eye with accuracy; with
Comparison large, can compare them closely, and detect similarities and
differences; with Constructiveness, Form, Size, and Imitation large or
very large, can excel in painting; but with Form and Size only average,

with fine paintings, and disgusted with imperfect coloring; with large
Form and Size, manages the perspective of painting admirably: p. 195.

excellent likeness, yet will fail somewhat in the coloring: p. 197.
