The glyphs do not lie, and the end of spring sun is depicted in Aa3-35, of that I am sure. This does not necessarily disturb counting by 2 glyphs per day according to our earlier structure. Because the following 16 glyphs apparently belong in a kind of 'local' calendar (presumably stretching from manu kake (ariga erua) in Aa3-10 and ending 25 glyphs later with honui in Aa3-35):

Aa3-13 Aa3-14 Aa3-15 Aa3-16 Aa3-17 (192)
Aa3-18 Aa3-19 Aa3-20 Aa3-21 (196)
Aa3-22 Aa3-23 (198)
Aa3-24 Aa3-25 Aa3-26 Aa3-27 Aa3-28

It would not be strange to have a 26 glyph long local calendar covering the path of spring sun in giant strides. For instance is 26 * 8 = 208 (= 200 + 8):

Aa3-29 Aa3-30 Aa3-31 Aa3-32
Aa3-33 (208) Aa3-34 Aa3-35

3 * 33 = 99 is a number which connects the orbit of Venus with that of Moon, and Aa3-33 is exceptional among these Rei glyphs because it has a part at right which is the same entity as Rei. Once again 3 (toru) is the key number. 2 parents are generating 1 more.

2 * 99 = 198 identifies the glyph number of hetuu in Aa3-23 as p.m. of day 99 counted from Aa1-1. Counted from manu rere in Ab8-31 it becomes day 27 + 99 = 126. With 1 glyph per day it becomes 2 * 126 = 252. The new 'fist' arrives 12 glyphs (or 6 days) later and is seen up front in Aa3-35. Number 252 occurs also as 4 * 63 in another such special Rei glyph:

Aa4-63 (314) Aa4-64 Aa4-65 Aa4-66 Aa4-67
Aa4-68 Aa4-69 Aa4-70 Aa4-71 Aa4-72

The situation is complex indeed. The last glyph in line a3 has ordinal number 251 and the last glyph in line a4 has number 333. Evidence points at Aa4-63 (with ordinal number equal to 100π) as belonging in day 184:

Aa4-54 Aa4-55 Aa4-56 Aa4-57 Aa4-58 Aa4-59
180 181 182
Aa4-60 Aa4-61 Aa4-62 Aa4-63 (314) Aa4-64 Aa4-65
183 314 / 2 + 27 = 184 185
Aa4-66 Aa4-67 Aa4-68 Aa4-69 Aa4-70 Aa4-71
186 187 188

251 at the end of line a3 and 333 at the end of line a4 seems to suggests that the end of spring sun cannot arrive until glyph line a4. The 2nd pare in Aa4-60 (311) is a sign of the final also by cause of 4 * 60 = 240.

Yet, according to the calendar based on 400 the end of spring should be described around day 200, and even if the proper way to count days should be to use 2 glyphs per day there must be allusions to day number 200 also where the number of glyphs reaches 200. The numbers carry the burden of order.
