Having gone through the probable variations which Black may adopt instead of checking with the Q., at his 3d move, we have now to consider those at his command, (after giving the check,) when he does not play the usual move of 4. P. to K. Kt's 4th.

| 1. P. to K's 4th. | 1. P. to K's 4th. |
| 2. P. to K. B's 4th. | 2. P. takes P. |
