Synopsis
Excerpt from The Rhyming Dictionary of the English Language: In Which the Whole Language Is Arranged According to Its Terminations; With a Copious Introduction to the Various Uses of the Work, and an Index of Allowable Rhymes
In the Bible, the most ancient of records, we find man, at a very early period, forming both wind and stringed instruments, modulating his speech into verse, and exhibiting in the very earliest instance on record that peculiar parallelism that characterised the Hebrew poetry of all subsequent ages.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of English versification, exploring the evolution of poetic form from ancient Hebrew poetry to the development of rhyme and alliteration in English literature. The author examines the fundamental principles of rhythm and meter, tracing their roots in the innate human sense of time and music. The book thoughtfully analyzes the structure of Hebrew poetry, highlighting the concept of "parallelism" and its significance in interpreting biblical texts. The author then explores the influence of classical Greek and Roman verse on English poetry, meticulously dissecting the structures of hexameter and pentameter lines. The work further investigates the prominence of alliteration in Anglo-Saxon poetry and its lingering influence on later English poets like Milton. By dissecting the intricacies of rhyme, alliteration, and other poetic devices, the book offers a compelling examination of the artistry and evolution of English versification. The book's meticulous analysis provides a unique historical and literary framework for understanding the richness and complexity of English poetry.
