Excerpt from The Progress of Learning: A Poem
A word as to the double or feminine rhymes. Whatever may be said as to the value of rhyme to poetry in general, it is certain that in English didac tic verse, designed to be read or recited as a public address, rhyme, and regularity in it, is a very im portant aid both to the ear and the mind. But the heavy, hammering fall of the strong masculine rhymes of the English heroic couplet is regarded as tiresome by the modern hearer. The author has therefore employed the feminine rhymes in order to give more lightness, grace, and flexibility to the verse, which, in spite of the additional syllable, can be read more fluently and rapidly than the pure iambic pentameter couplet.
