Syllepsis, in more worthy, comprehends 70
The less ; and former's preference defends.
Asyndeton, or, (which the same implies,) 71
Dialyton, the cop'lative denies.
In the Context.
Hyperbaton makes words and sense to run 72
In order that's disturb'd ; such rather shun.
Hysteron doth misplace both words and sense, 73
And maketh last, what's first by just pretence.
Hypallages from case to case transpose ; 74
A liberty that's never us'd in prose.
'Tis Hellenismus when we speak or write 75
In the like style and phrase the Greeks indite.
By Tmesis words divided oft are seen, 76
And others 'twixt the parts do intervene.
Hyphen does words to one another tie, 77
With such a dash as this (-) to know it by.
EXAMPLES.
70. I and my Brother, (i. e. we) go out to play. 71.
Faith, Justice, Truth, Religion, Mercy dies. 72. Wealth,
which the old Man had rak'd and scrap'd together, now
the boy doth game and drink away ; (for now the boy
doth game and drink away Wealth, which the old Man
had rak'd and scrap'd together. ) 73. He was bred and
bom, for born and bred at London. 74. Cups, to which
I never mov'd my Lips, for Cups which I never mov'd

Death. ) 76. What crime soever, for whatsoever crime.
