Excerpt from Auxilia Vergiliana, or First Steps in Latin Prosody I think that many make a false beginning in their Vergil, or Ovid, by not beginning it as poetry. While the first month's reading-lessons are progressing, the pupil is learning prosody from the grammar. Until this is done, an initiation into the mysteries of scanning and proving is deferred. One or two books of Vergil -often more are accordingly read with as much indifference to metre and rhythm as if they were so many books of Caesar. The only difference that this method enables a pupil to discern between prose and poetry is, that poetry allows what seems to him a much more blind and confused arrangement of words.
