Lib. i. Od. xxxiv. Lib. i. Od. xiv. — Ed. 180 ON METEICAL TRANSLATION. when you take the verse to pieces : and I confess that my despised old friend, " Sordid, unfeeling, reprobate, degraded " seems to me more Horatian than any line in the copy before me. Could Mr. Fortescue read the ode he has translated into the metre into which he has put it ? Of course he could if he scanned it all through ; and in that case I can only put my former question in a different form. Why is it that we never find... in Horace such a line as Ense nudo terruit Hector arcem ? — In an alcaic one naturally looks to the two final lines. Of Mr. Fortescue''s third lines, one seems to me (for an obvious reason) really to resemble one of Horace's : the remainder to be much less like it than Mr. Jingle's fragment, "In hurry poste-haste for a licence." They are all exactly in the metre " My brother Jack was nine in May," if we substitute a dissyllable (" April " suppose) for the monosyllable at the end. Can Horace's third lines be read, by scanning them or otherwise, into this ON METRICAL TRANSLATION.
