The Macclesfield copy of two sixteenth century Lyonnaise studies, evidently published together, on Latin syntax and prosody by French poet and rector of Ravières Bartelon Pantaleón (d. 1568).
Bartelon pays particular attention to the rhythms and tones of poetry examined; particularly of the comic variety, and includes a short examination on Greek dialect.
