236,
and
makes
a
gentle
rubbing
motion
with
the
thumb
upon
the
rings,
and
then
lets
fall
one
of
them,
which
naturally
drops
to
the
position
shown
in
Fig.
237.
He
now
hands
these
two
rings
for
examination.
The
spectators
seek
for
some
joint
or
opening,
but
none
is
found;
and
meanwhile
the
performer
transfers
the
next
ring
(the
“key”)
to
his
right
hand,
keeping
the
opening
under
the
thumb.
He
now
takes
back
with
the
left
hand
the
two
single
rings,
immediately
transferring
one
of
them
to
the
right
hand,
and
with
the
ball
of
the
thumb
presses
it
through
the
opening
in
the
key
ring,
into
which
it
falls,
with
exactly
the
same
effect
as
the
apparent
joining
of
the
two
linked
rings
a
moment
before.
Again
he
separates
and
again
joins
the
two
rings.
The
second
single
ring
is
now
made
to
pass
through
in
like
manner,
making
the
combination
shown
in
Fig.
238.
The
performer
remarks,
“We
now
have
three
joined
together.
Here
are
three
more,
as
you
see
(shaking
those
in
the
left
hand),
all
solid
and
separate,
and
yet
at
my
will
they
will
join
like
the
others.”
Making
a
rubbing
motion
with
the
thumb
as
before,
he
drops
two
of
the
three,
one
by
one,
from
the
hand,
when
they
will
appear
as
a
chain
of
three.
