little boat on a rill. Candle and rain: out in the rain with a lighted candle. Horse and room: a horse finding his way unbidden into your room. Haystack and rower: a rower mooring his boat under the shadow of a haystack. Watch and reef: cast upon a reef where you keep constant watch. Desk and robe: a gorgeous robe locked in your desk. Tea-pot and rat: a rat inside a tea-pot. Grave and rush: a rush growing on a grave. Needle and rake: a rake with a monstrous needle for each tooth. Sun and face: a face in the sun.
Having thus exhausted your list in some such manner as the above, let some one read the table over, if you should happen not to be sufficiently familiar with it, and, as each word is repeated, it will immediately suggest the word you associated with it; that is to say, when part of the picture is given, it will immediately recall the whole.
