Usage examples of tenpins.

In the earlier dreams, I contented myself with exploring these incredible cities, attempting to measure their angles -- so utterly dissimilar to anything I had ever learned from Professor Wogglebug's geometry pills -- and occasionally trying to lay out baseball diamonds and football fields for the perpetually unseen inhabitants, or to set up curiously-shaped stones in the formation of tenpins, which invariably toppled down because of the peculiar tilt of the ground long before I could bowl them over with the black cinder-like spheroids that sometimes lay about.
