We used to read the first book of Euclid as far as pons asinorum; but regularly as we reached the dreadful pass we were turned back for a revisal.
Ginamit namin na basahin ang unang libro ng Euclid makaabot pons asinorum; ngunit regular na namin naabot ang kakila-kilabot pass namin ay yari sa likod para sa isang revisal.
