text_original: The book is now quite straight, and firmly fixed in the press, and we have to decide if it is to be sewn flexibly or not. If for _flexible_ binding the book is _not to be sawn in_, but marked; the difference being, that with the latter the cord is _outside the sheets_; with the former the cord is _imbedded in the back_, in the cut or groove made by the saw.
