("a") Let
him learn to write backwards, with either hand.
("b") Let him learn to walk backwards.
("c") Let him constantly watch, if
convenient, cinematograph films, and listen to
phonograph records, reversed, and let him so
accustom himself to these that they appear
natural, and appreciable as a whole.
("d") Let him practise speaking
backwards; thus for "I am He" let him
say, "Eh ma I".
("e") Let him learn to read backwards.
In this it is difficult to avoid cheating one's
self, as an expert reader sees a sentence at a
glance. Let his disciple read aloud to him
backwards, slowly at first, then more quickly.
("f") Of his own ingenium, let him
devise other methods.
