An Inquiry Into the Nature and History of Greek and Latin Poetry: More Particularly of the Dramatic Species: Tending to Ascertain the Laws of Comic Metre in Both Those Languages; to Show, I. that Poetical Licences Have No Real Existence, But are Mere Corruptions; II. that the Verses of Plautus, Terence, Pindar, and Horace, are in Many Instances Erroneously Regulated; and to Suggest a More Rational and Musical Division of the Verses
