Excerpt from An Essay on the Origin, Progress, and Decline of Rhyming Latin Verse: With Many Specimens
The peculiar beauties of poetry are addressed to the ear as well as to the mind; they comprehend both sound and sense. Though sublime sentiments, picturesque descriptions, strong and metaphorical language, may indeed be the more important features, they are not sufficient to constitute a poem, without the harmony of numbers. Rhyme, likewise an ornament derived from sound only, has been introduced into the poetry of various countries A practice which has delighted so many polished as well as simple nations, can scarcely be considered as childish or barbarous, and must be referable to some general principles of gratification. The recurrence of similar sounds at stated periods is pleasing to the ear.
