Description

"The Rhymester or; The Rules of Rhyme" is a comprehensive guide to rhyming, being a dictionary of rhymes, an examination of classical measures with comments on burlesque, comic verse, and song-writing. This volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in poetry- and song-writing, and it would make for a wonderful addition to any collection. Contents include: "Verse Generally", "Classic Versification", "Guides and Hand-books", "Of Feet and Caesura", "Meter and Rhythm", "Of Rhyme", "Of Figures", "Of Burlesque and Comic Verse, and Vers De Société", "Of Song-writing", "Of the Sonnet", "Of the Rondeau and the Ballade", "Of Other Fixed Forms of Verse", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of poetry.
