A17877	Obseruations in the art of English poesie. By Thomas Campion. Wherein it is demonstratiuely prooued, and by example confirmed, that the English toong will receiue eight seuerall kinds of numbers, proper to it selfe, which are all in this booke set forth, and were neuer before this time by any man attempted	Campion, Thomas, 1567-1620.	1602 (1602)	STC 4543; ESTC S118604	15,351	50

the_o syllable_n do_v beget_v for_o we_o find_v in_o music_n that_o oftentimes_o the_o strain_n of_o a_o song_n can_v not_o be_v reduct_v to_o true_a number_n without_o some_o rest_v prefix_v in_o the_o beginning_n and_o middle_n as_o also_o at_o the_o close_a if_o need_n require_v beside_o our_o english_a monasillable_n enforce_v many_o breathe_n which_o no_o doubt_n great_o lengthen_v a_o verse_n so_o that_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n if_o for_o these_o reason_n our_o english_a verse_n of_o five_o foot_n hold_v pace_n with_o the_o latin_n of_o six_o the_o pure_a jambick_a in_o english_a needs_o small_a demonstration_n because_o it_o consist_v simple_o of_o jambick_a foot_n but_o our_o jambick_a licentiate_a offer_v itself_o to_o a_o far_a consideration_n for_o in_o the_o three_o and_o five_o place_n we_o must_v of_o force_n hold_v the_o jambick_a foot_n in_o the_o first_o second_o and_o four_o place_n we_o may_v use_v a_o spondee_n or_o jambick_a and_o sometime_o a_o

hark_v how_o these_o wind_n there_o the_o voice_n natural_o affect_v a_o rest_n then_o murmur_v at_o thy_o flight_n that_o be_v of_o itself_o a_o perfect_a number_n as_o i_o will_v declare_v in_o the_o next_o chapter_n and_o therefore_o the_o other_o odd_a syllable_n between_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v short_a lest_o the_o verse_n shall_v hang_v too_o much_o between_o the_o natural_a pause_n of_o the_o verse_n and_o the_o dimeter_n follow_v the_o which_o dimeter_n though_o it_o be_v natural_o trochaical_a yet_o it_o seem_v to_o have_v his_o original_n out_o of_o the_o jambick_a verse_n but_o the_o better_a to_o confirm_v and_o express_v these_o rule_n i_o will_v set_v down_o a_o short_a poem_n in_o licentiate_a iambic_n which_o may_v give_v more_o light_n to_o they_o that_o shall_v hereafter_o imitate_v these_o number_n go_v number_n bold_o pass_v stay_v not_o for_o aid_v of_o shift_a rhyme_n that_o easy_a flatterer_n who_o witchcraft_n can_v the_o rude_a ear_n beguile_v let_v

foot_n as_o our_o trochy_n after_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o latin_a heroick_n and_o jambick_a rest_v natural_o in_o the_o first_o of_o the_o three_o foot_n yet_o no_o man_n be_v tie_v altogether_o to_o observe_v this_o rule_n but_o he_o may_v alter_v it_o after_o the_o judgement_n of_o his_o ear_n which_o poet_n orator_n and_o musician_n of_o all_o man_n ought_v to_o have_v most_o excellent_a again_o though_o i_o say_v peremtory_o before_o that_o the_o three_o and_o five_o place_n of_o our_o licentiate_a jambick_a must_v always_o hold_v a_o jambick_a foot_n yet_o i_o will_v show_v you_o example_n in_o both_o place_n where_o a_o tribrack_n may_v be_v very_o formal_o take_v and_o first_o in_o the_o three_o place_n some_o trade_n in_o barbary_n some_o in_o turkey_n trade_n an_o other_o

tribrack_n in_o the_o five_o place_n as_o you_o may_v perceive_v in_o the_o last_o foot_n of_o the_o five_o verse_n some_o from_o the_o starry_a throne_n his_o fame_n derive_v some_o from_o the_o

why_o the_o english_a jambick_a in_o his_o first_o place_n may_v not_o as_o well_o borrow_v a_o foot_n of_o the_o trochy_n as_o our_o trochy_n or_o the_o latin_a hendecasyllable_n may_v in_o the_o like_a case_n make_v bold_a with_o the_o jambick_a but_o it_o must_v be_v do_v ever_o with_o this_o caveat_n which_o be_v that_o a_o sponde_v dactile_a or_o tribrack_n do_v supply_v the_o next_o place_n for_o a_o jambick_a beginning_n with_o a_o single_a short_a syllable_n and_o the_o other_o end_v before_o with_o the_o like_a will_v too_o much_o drink_v up_o the_o verse_n if_o they_o come_v immediate_o together_o the_o example_n of_o the_o sponde_v after_o the_o trochy_n as_o the_o fair_a son_n the_o light_a some_o heaven_n adorn_v the_o example_n of_o the_o dactil_a noble_a ingenious_a and_o discreet_o wise_a the_o example_n of_o the_o tribrack_n beauty_n to_o jealousy_n bring_v joy_n sorrow_n sear_n though_o i_o have_v set_v down_o these_o second_o licenses_fw-la as_o good_a and_o ayreable_a enough_o yet_o for_o the_o most_o part_n my_o first_o rule_n be_v general_a these_o be_v those_o number_n which_o nature_n in_o our_o english_a destinate_n to_o the_o tragic_a and_o heroik_a poem_n for_o the_o subject_n of_o they_o both_o be_v all_o one_o i_o see_v no_o impediment_n why_o one_o verse_n may_v not_o serve_v for_o they_o both_o as_o it_o appear_v more_o plain_o in_o the_o old_a comparison_n of_o the_o two_o greek_a writer_n when_o they_o say_v homerus_fw-la est_fw-la sophocles_n heroicus_fw-la and_o again_o sophocles_n est_fw-la homerus_fw-la tragicus_fw-la intimate_v that_o both_o sophocles_n and_o homer_n be_v the_o same_o in_o height_n and_o subject_n and_o differ_v only_o in_o the_o kind_n of_o their_o number_n the_o jambick_a verse_n in_o like_a manner_n be_v yet_o make_v a_o little_a more_o licentiate_a that_o it_o may_v thereby_o the_o near_o imitate_v our_o common_a talk_n will_v excellent_o serve_v for_o comedy_n and_o then_o may_v we_o use_v a_o sponde_v in_o the_o five_o place_n and_o in_o the_o three_o place_n any_o foot_n except_o a_o trochy_n which_o never_o enter_v into_o our_o jambick_a verse_n but_o in_o the_o first_o place_n and_o then_o with_o his_o caveat_n of_o the_o other_o foot_n which_o must_v of_o necessity_n follow_v the_o five_o chapter_n of_o the_o jambick_a dimeter_n or_o english_a march_n the_o dimeter_n so_o call_v in_o the_o former_a chapter_n i_o intend_v next_o of_o all_o to_o handle_v because_o it_o seem_v to_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o jambick_a which_o be_v our_o most_o natural_a and_o ancient_a english_a verse_n we_o may_v term_v this_o our_o english_a march_n because_o the_o verse_n answer_v our_o warlike_a form_n of_o march_n in_o similitude_n of_o number_n but_o call_v it_o what_o you_o please_v for_o i_o will_v not_o wrangle_v about_o name_n only_o intend_v to_o set_v down_o the_o nature_n of_o it_o and_o true_a structure_n it_o consist_v of_o two_o foot_n and_o one_o odd_a
