PASS
IV.
HAVING
PLACED
TWO
BALLS
UNDER
THE
MIDDLE
CUP,
TO
MAKE
THEM
PASS
UNDER
THE
TWO
OUTER
ONES.--“You
have
just
seen
these
two
balls
pass
under
the
middle
cup;
now,
by
way
of
variety,
we
will
make
them
pass
out
of
it.
I
will
take
the
two
balls,
and
place
them
under
the
middle
cup.”
He
really
so
places
one
only,
palming
the
other.
“You
observe
that
there
is
nothing
either
under
this
(A),
nor
under
this
(C).”
Here
he
secretly
introduces
the
palmed
ball
beneath
C.
“Now
I
order
one
of
the
balls
under
the
middle
cup
to
pass
under
one
of
the
outer
cups.
Let
us
see
if
it
has
done
so”
(lifts
middle
cup
with
left
hand).
“Yes,
here
is
only
one
left.”
He
takes
it
up
and
shows
it
with
right
hand,
then
makes
the
gesture
of
replacing,
but
really
palms
it.
“Let
us
see
where
it
has
gone
to”
(lifts
A
with
right
hand,
and
in
replacing
it
secretly
introduces
the
palmed
ball
under
it).
“It
is
not
under
this
one.
Then
it
must
be
under
this.”
He
lifts
C.
“Yes,
here
it
is.
Now
I
command
the
other
ball
in
like
manner
to
leave
the
middle
cup,
and
pass
under
the
other
(A).
Pass!
Here
it
is,
you
see,
and
this
one
(B)
is
entirely
empty.”
