Artificial versifying

a new way to make Latin verses. Whereby any one of ordinary capacity, that only knows the A.B.C. and can count 9 (though he understands not one word of Latin, or what a verse means) may be plainly taught (and in as little a time as this is reading over) how to make hundreds of hexameter verses, which shall be true Latine, true verse, and good sense. The third edition. Wherein the old structure of hexameter is quite taken down, and in its place a more compact one raised; to which is adjoyned a new model of pentameters. Never before publish'd. By the same hand of John Peter geō-ourano metrēs
