0C5" In different parts of this " Clavis," and in my
"Scanning Exercises for Young Prosodians,. "
I give EUander, EUenus, Sfc. with the first syl-
lable a diphthong, as in the original Greek;
which is the only way to render that syllable longs
since the Latin V, belonging to a subsequent
syllable, has not the power to lengthen a preceding
short vowel, as we see in Gravis, Levis, Nivis,
Novus, Jiivenis. -- See further remarks on this
subject in my " Latin Prosody," sect. 47.
