Excerpt from A Study of English Rhyme This book is the best and the worst on its theme, for there is no, other. Many volumes have been written on the principles and prae tice of the poetic art; but none, from Sidney's days to Saints bury's, has been wholly devoted to the nature and history of English rhyme. The rhyming dictionaries, such as Walker's, Barnum's, or Loring's, have naturally contented themselves with vocabularies; while general treatises on poetics or poetic history have usually dismissed rhyme as a modern phonetic pleasure of uncertain origin. Furthermore, most writers on the subject, save Schipper and his followers, have ignored the rela tion, which ought to be obvious, between alliteration, assonance, and end-rhyme, as different forms of the same thing. The purpose of the present work is to try to trace the evolution of English rhyme, and to correlate it with physical laws, the growth of individual or communal song, and the history of the rhyme-art in other European tongues. Collateral attention has therefore been given to alliteration in the Teutonic languages, assonance in Spanish, and end-rhyme in Latin, Provencal, Ital ian, French, and German; but it was manifestly impossible, in a volume of small size, to present a polyglot or comparative history of a subject of such indefinite extent. Indeed, a full record of English rhyme alone would demand, for its presentation, a library almost as extensive as the works of the poets discussed. It has therefore been my attempt to give the leading principles of the discussion, leaving applications to be followed at the reader's pleasure.

Excerpt from A New Study of English Poetry Evidently Authority, if there be any such power, would need only to speak once and for all but suggestion is a humbler form of persuasion and must be clear and persistent. Unfortunately it is also dangerous to be too clear or too persistent: and I have realised this so strongly that 1 fear to have done my beliefs less than justice. My chief feeling, in parting from the book, is one of anxiety lest I have stated them, vital and moment ous as they seem to me, in too slight a form and little of and illustration.

Excerpt from The Nursery Rhymes of England The nursery rhyme is the novel and light reading of the infant scholar. It occupies, with respect to the A B C, the position of a romance which relieves the mind from the cares of a riper age. The absurdity and fri volity of a rhyme may naturally be its chief attractions to the very young; and there will be something lost from the imagination of that child, whose parents insist so much on matters of fact, that the cow must be made, in compliance with the rules of their educational code, to jump under instead of over the moon; while of course the little dog must be considered as barking, not laughing at the circumstance.

Excerpt from The Progress of Learning: A Poem A word as to the double or feminine rhymes. Whatever may be said as to the value of rhyme to poetry in general, it is certain that in English didac tic verse, designed to be read or recited as a public address, rhyme, and regularity in it, is a very im portant aid both to the ear and the mind. But the heavy, hammering fall of the strong masculine rhymes of the English heroic couplet is regarded as tiresome by the modern hearer. The author has therefore employed the feminine rhymes in order to give more lightness, grace, and flexibility to the verse, which, in spite of the additional syllable, can be read more fluently and rapidly than the pure iambic pentameter couplet.
