off thy sinnes by righteousnesse and thine INIQUITIES by shewing m●rcy unto the poore I answered that in th● word INIQUITIES was a Synechdoche● the generall word Iniquitie being put for Oppression one kinde of iniquitie whereby I clear●● the place from seeming to confirm the Popish doctrine of making satisfaction for our sinnes by our works for which purpose that place was alledged● and shewed that it did import no more then th●t speech of Isaiah Cease to do evil learn to do well I will not multiplie examples Reader thi● Tract having been proved and approved as a sufficient mean to instruct any indifferent wit that will bestow pains in serious meditation and conference with a scholar in the knowledge of the art I am bold to commend to thy use if tho● shalt need it and commit unto thy love if tho● shalt esteem it Farewell If thou sayest I ha●e made my gates too big know I did it that my book might have the better passage But now I shut them up resting thine in the hope and endeavour of better services IOHN BARTON THE Art of RHETORICK CHAP. I. Sect. I. RHETORICK is the a skill of using daintie words and comely deliverie whereby to work upon mens affections It hath two parts Adornation and Action Adornation consisteth in the sweetnesse of the phrase and is seen in Tropes and Figures A b Trope is an affecting kinde of speech altering the native signification of a c word In a Trope are to be considered 1. The Kindes 2. The Affections There be foure kindes of Tropes 1. Substitution 2. Comprehension 3. Comparation 4. Simulation The Comment a That is to say It is the Art of trimming decking garnishing the Oration with fine wittie pithie moving pleasing words cla●ses and sentences in the passages and style of speech b This word Trope is as much as to say a borrowed speech so that when any word leaves his native that is his proper signification ●●d assumes a borrowed we say it is Tropicall Although some speeches are grown so common that they are taken to be proper as Correct me O Lord for Chastise me O Lord the Effect for the Cause but so usuall that few perhaps would note it c See Note 6. Sect. 2. SUbstitution is a borrowed speech by an accidentall a relation It is either Perfect or Elliptick b Perfect Substitution is when the word wherein the Trope lies is cast away in the c Resolution And it is fourefold 1. First of the Cause 2. Of the Effect 3. Of the Subject 4. Of the Adjunct or Accident Substitution of the Cause is two wayes 1. First when the d Efficient cause is put for the effect Gen. 4.7 a Sinne lieth at the doore Ezra 4. 7. The writing was in the Syrian a tongue 1. Tim. 6. 6. Godlinesse is a gain So when the Author e Principall or Famous in a thing is used for that which is wrought or brought in by him or named from him Act. 21.21 They are informed tha● thou teachest to forsake a Moses Psal. 14.7 a Iacob shall rejoyce and a Israel shall be glad 2. Secondly when the Materiall Cause is used for the Effect Psal. 105. 8. He was laid in● iron The Comment a Relation is when a thing in any respect hath reference to another An accidentall Relation I call that which continues onely while they are Tropes or otherwise they are not necessarily considered together as Sinne is put for horrour punishment Tong●● for language Gain for gainfull Moses for the Law Iacob and Israel for the Israelites Iron for fetters Now there may be sinne where there is no horrour or punishment considered Gain may be considered abstractively that is by it self and not in a subject as there may be vertue justice though there were none just so there may be a tongue without language as in beasts Iacob might have been though no Israelites after him Moses though no Law Iron though no fetters But in Synechdoches there is a true Relation considered whether they be Tropes or no the Genus must have his Species and the whole his parts and contrarily These do subsist one in another In a word Substitution is from things that have but an affinitie Comprehension from things that have a consanguinitie b Note from this example that in some Metonymicall Relations the Cause and Effect Subject and Adjunct may perhaps be hard to conceive for unlesse to scholars it is not so readie to be apprehended that gain is the cause of gainfull though indeed it is for what makes gainfull but gain c The resolving of a Trope is the changing of it to a plain speech for instance The writing was in the Syrian language This now you see is made a plain speech by putting away the borrowed word tongue and resuming language whi●h was meant by tongue This I call a Perfect Resolution because I come directly to my word again d The Efficient Cause is whereby a thing is made or done the Material Cause whereof e Note that it is one thing when the Principall is considered as the Cause another as the Subject another as a Part. Instance Israel fought with Amalek If here by Amalek and Israel I mean their succeeding race themselves being dead it is a Metonymie of the Cause but if I mean by them their armies themselves being at home it is a Metonymie of the Subject If I mean by them the Israelites and Amalekites led by them into the field themselves being partners in the battell it is the Part for the Whole Sect. 3. SUbstitution of the Effect is when the Effect is used for the Cause 2. King 4.10 a Death is in the pot Ioh. 11. 25. I am the g resurrection Substitution of the b Subject is when the Subject is used for the Adjunct Eph. 4. 22. Cast off the old c man Thus the place or seat and container are used for the placed or contained thing Psal. 78. 87. Their d heart was not right Gen. 6. 11. The e earth was corrupt before God 1. Cor. 11. 26. As oft as you drink this f cup ye shew the Lords death The Comment a Death is put for poyson which is the effect of poyson b The Subject is that thing whereunto something is said to appertain or belong and the said appurtenance is called the Adjunct or Accident c Man is put for nature d Heart for the affections there seated e for people f for wine g I think good here to note that it will perhaps be difficult sometimes to hit upon a term whereby to resolve a Trope perfectly for indeed when I first considered of this example I could resolve it with addition thus I am the cause or causer of the resurrection but the term Raiser I could not think on a good while And at first view I thought these Elli●tick also Exod. 21. 21. Eph. 5. 16. Sect. 4. SUbstitution of the Adjunct is when the Accident is
