To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. . . By far the greater number of verses in the poetry of the OT. Consist of distichs of one or other of the types that have been illustrated ; though naturally every individual line is not con- structed with the regularity of the examples selected (which, in- DRIVER. Ivii deed, especially in a long poem, would tend to monotony). The following are the other principal forms of the Hebrew verse : 1. Single lines, or monostichs. These are found but rarely, being gener- ally used to express a thou...ght with some emphasis at the beginning, or occa- sionally at the end, of a poem : Ps. 16, I. 18, I. 23, i. 66, -i; Ex. 15, 18. 2. Verses of three lines, or tristichs. Here different types arise, according to the relation in which the several lines stand to one another. Sometimes, for instance, the three lines are synonymous, as Ps. 5, 1 1 Hut let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice, Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them : And let them that love thy name be joyful in thee.
