Of Anagrams - A Monograph Treating of Their History From the Earliest Ages to the Present Time (Hardcover)
Expected to ship within 10 - 15 working days

With an Introduction containing numerous specimens of macronic
poetry, punning mottoes, rhopalic, shaped, equivocal, lyon, and
echo verses, alliteration, acrostics, lipograms, chronograms,
logograms, palindromes, bouts and rimes. Anagrams have for so long
been held in little esteem that we shall not be surprised that
there are few who are aware that these literary amusements once
knew better days. There were times, when great poets considered the
making of Anagrams and Acrostics a pleasing and elegant relaxation;
and when some individuals were so expert in their construction,
they obtained the honorable designation of Anagrammatists.
