The next four figures, called the "daughters" or filiae, are created by adding the points of the mothers sideways from right to left. Each daughter consists of the sequence of dots taken from the same row or level of the four mothers. Thus, the first daughter consists of four rows of dots (the "heads" of the mothers) from the top level of each of the mothers in order from the first (M1) to the fourth (M4). The second daughter is made up of all the second rows or "necks" of the mothers, taken in order from one to four. All the third rows or "bodies" of mothers combine to make the third daughter. Combining all the "feet" of the mothers in order produces the fourth daughter.
