For arcs of more than 60°, the chord is less than the arc, until an arc of 180° is reached, when the chord is only 120. The fractional parts of chord lengths were expressed in sexagesimal (base 60) numerals. For example ...

The hymn "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross" was written by Isaac Watts, and published in Hymns and Spiritual Songs in 1707. It is significant for being an innovative departure from the early English hymn style of only using paraphrased biblical texts, although the first couplet of the second verse paraphrases Galatians 6:14a and the second couplet of the fourth verse paraphrases Gal. 6:14b.
