[1913 Webster] The image of Christ, made after his own proportion. --Ridley. [1913 Webster] Formed in the best proportions of her sex. --Sir W. Scott.

Thus, 24, 16, 12, 9, are harmonical, for 24:9::8:3. In proportion, according as; to the degree that. “In proportion as they are metaphysically true, they are morally and politically false.” --Burke. [1913 Webster]
