   • 1859 October (pub. 1860 October), John Daniel Runkle (editor), The Mathematical Monthly, volume II, № I, pages 29–31: W.P.G. Bartlett, “The Elements of Quaternions”, part I: “Lines”, § 4:

     In operations on lines in space, it is convenient to substitute for some of the given lines other lines, equal, and therefore parallel, to the given ones, but passing through a point in space common to themselves and the other given lines; so that all the lines may be coöriginal.
