<P>In stead, of [

<Q>
<L>A proud people and wise and valiant,</L>
<L>Fiercely fighting with horses and with barbes:</L>
<L>By whose provves the Romain Prince did daunt,</L>

<HEAD>CHAP. XVI. Of the figures which we call Sensable, because they alter and affect the minde by alteration of sence, and first in single wordes.</HEAD>
