Prosopopeia a new person feigns, 57
And to inanimates speech and reason deigns.
Apostrophe for greater themes or less 58
Doth turn aside, to make a short address.
Figures of Orthography.
Prosthesis to the front of words doth add 59
Letters or syllables they never had.
Aphceresis from the beginning takes 59
What syllable or letter the word up-makes.
Syncope leaves the middle syllable oat, 60
Which causes oft of case and tense to doubt.
Epenthesis to middle adds one more 60
Than what the word could justly claim before.
Apocope cuts off a final letter, 61
Or syllable, to make the verse run better.
A Paragoge adds unto the end, 61
Yet not the sense, but measure to amend.
EXAMPLES.
57. The very Stones of the Street speak your Wicked-
ness. The Mountains clap their Hands, and the Hills
sing for Joy. 58. Thus he possessed the gold by Vio-
lence. Oh !

? ART OF RHETORIC. 137
Prosopopeia a new person feigns, 57
And to inanimates speech and reason deigns.
Apostrophe for greater themes or less 58
Doth turn aside, to make a short address.
Figures of Orthography.
Prosthesis to the front of words doth add 59
Letters or syllables they never had.
Aphceresis from the beginning takes 59
What syllable or letter the word up-makes.
Syncope leaves the middle syllable oat, 60
Which causes oft of case and tense to doubt.
Epenthesis to middle adds one more 60
Than what the word could justly claim before.
Apocope cuts off a final letter, 61
Or syllable, to make the verse run better.
A Paragoge adds unto the end, 61
Yet not the sense, but measure to amend.
EXAMPLES.
57. The very Stones of the Street speak your Wicked-
ness. The Mountains clap their Hands, and the Hills
sing for Joy. 58. Thus he possessed the gold by Vio-
lence. Oh !
