Correct prose order
'And in short measures life may perfect be.'- And life may be perfect in short measures.
Explanation:
- Poetry is very much different from prose.
- Poetry does not follow the same word order or syntax as prose.
- Poetry also follows a certain rhyming scheme or internal rhyming.
- Poetry also uses a different word arrangement to create an emphasis.
- A figure of speech often used for an inverted word arrangement is the 'hyperbaton'.
- A hyperbaton is a literary device that inverts the word order in a manner to create an emphasis.
- In Ben Jonson's poem 'The Noble Nature' there is an avid use of the hyperbaton.
- The last line 'And in short measures life may perfect be.' is a perfect example of the hyperbaton.
- The correct prose order of the last line is : 'And in short measures life may perfect be.'
