Section 13. — How I had a Vision of Lineland

Section 14. — How I vainly tried to explain the nature of Flatland

Section 15. — Concerning a Stranger from Spaceland

Section 16. — How the Stranger vainly endeavoured to reveal to me in words the mysteries of Spaceland

Section 17. — How the Sphere, having in vain tried words, resorted to deeds

Section 18. — How I came to Spaceland, and what I saw there

Section 19. — How, though the Sphere shewed me other mysteries of Spaceland, I still desire more; and what came of it

Section 20. — How the Sphere encouraged me in a Vision.

Section 21. — How I tried to teach the Theory of Three Dimensions to my Grandson, and with what success

Section 22. — How I then tried to diffuse the Theory of Three Dimensions by other means, and of the result



this explains the 22 sections of the book in both parts...
this can be used very effectively in my idea as "Flatland by Edwin A Abbott" contains 22 characters allowing for an origami letter for each section!
