Summary: We compute the irrotational motion of two fluids with a horizontal plane surface of separation, under gravity. The fluids are nonviscous and incompressible, the upper one of finite depth with a free surface; they contain a line singularity or a point singularity. We obtain the velocity potentials for each singularity located in the upper or the lower fluid; if the upper depth tends to infinity, known results are recovered.
