Quod nisi et assiduis terram insectabere rastris,
Et sonitu terrebis aves, et ruris opaci
Falce premes umbras, votisque vocaveris imbrem.
Si vero viciamque seres, vilemque Faselum.
This Manner of using these connecting Particles, gives Majesty and Strength to the Verse. It gives Majesty, because it occasions Suspense and raises the Attention. For Example:
Si vero Viciamque seres————
Here the que hinders the Sense from being concluded, till you have read the rest of the Line,
————Vilemque Faselum.
