Chapter CXIX

[On arriving at the end of a book, boys have a practice of
reciting the following absurd lines, which form the word
_finis_ backwards and forwards, by the initials of the
words,]--

Father Iohnson Nicholas Iohnson's son--
Son Iohnson Nicholas Iohnson's Father.

[To get to father Johnson, therefore, was to reach the end of
the book.]
