ENGLISH VERSE.
In the English Versification there are two Things chiefly to be consider'd;
1. The Verses.
2. The several Sorts of Poems, or Compositions in Verse.
But because in the Verses there are also two Things to be observ'd; The Structure of the Verse; and the Rhyme; this Treatise shall be divided into three Chapters.
I. Of the Structure of English Verses.
II. Of Rhyme.
III. Of the several Sorts of Poems, or Compositions in Verse.
