A Pattern of Word Order in Latin Poetry

Classical Quarterly 18 (2):334-354 (1968)
  Copy   BIBTEX

Abstract

In each example an adjective is separated from its noun by a verb and an unqualified noun. The separation by the verb may be regarded as conditioned by the metre, but not the further separation by the unqualified noun, as the qualified and unqualified nouns are metrically interchangeable. Horace would appear to prefer the wider separation to the less wide.
