Whether I help or not, this forms the 'suspension-cable, the main piece of the framework. I call it a cable, in spite of its extreme thinness, because of its structure.

It looks as though it were single, but, at the two ends, it is seen to divide and spread, tuft-wise, into numerous constituent parts, which are the product of as many crossings. These diverging fibres, with their several contact-points, increase the steadiness of the two extremities. The suspension-cable is incomparably stronger than the rest of the work and lasts for an indefinite time.
