By the melting and freezing of the lower surface and by the slow intestinal motion, as well as by the sudden fissuring of the mass, its lower portion would become filled with a large and varying quantity of loose, rocky material. Also, where, by secular decomposition, as indicated on page 374, the rocks had become softened to great depth, the whole, soaked with water, 534 GEOLOGY OF OLD HAMPSHIRE COUNTY, MASS. might be frozen into a solid mass, and the snows gathering on this, it might with lit...tle change become the base of the glacier and be moved on bodily- Much of the same material Avas pushed along beneath the ice, its parts crushed and ground against each other, whereby all the softer rocks were soon reduced to an impalpable mud, the lai-ger and the harder ones enduring longer, but all at last yielding to the same fate, unless, worked up into the ice itself or gathered in thick accumulations beneath it, they were shielded from the more violent action of its mass. The ice was, however, constantly providing itself with new material, and soon wore the fragments into the peculiar shapes so characteristic of glacial accumula- tions, three- and four-sided forms, with irregular ends more or less elongate as the rock was more or less schistose, the sides flat or broadly convex, joined by rounded edges and scratched in various directions.
