Synopsis
Excerpt from A Prosodiacal Lexicon of the Greek Language: Collected From the Heroic Poets, for the Use of Schools, and for the Advancement of the Study of Prosody
Anacreon, but only when the nature of the verse is such as to preclude the possibility of uncertainty. So anxious has he also been to render the authorities brought for ward clear and decisive, that he has not even admitted a word which begins a line, without specifying it; since there are some few instances to be found, of other feet, besides the Dactyl and Spondee, at the commencement of a line.
