About half the following pages are concerned with the “cubic surface group” G, of order 51840, and the geometry cognate to a certain representation thereof. The literature of this group, with its subgroup of order 25920, is already voluminous; the addition of these few pages to it will not, it is hoped, be regarded askance as a perverse and misdirected indulgence in archaism.
