ENTHYMEME. The Logical Enthymeme is an incomplete and cut-short mode of drawing a conclusion, without an express pro- position or assumption [or, a concealed Syllogism , i.e. such a one as requires one or other premiss to be understood]. It is a kind of compendious way of drawing a conclusion, and can easily be reduced to the mode (form) of a full and perfect Syllogism. Ernesti Initia doctr. Solid. P. ii. Dialect, ch. 4, 78 [Ed. v. p. 344].
“ A rhetorical Enthymeme has two forms, the one of which is from the consequents , the other from the contraries , which alone some of the ancients call an Enthymeme. That from the consequents is, that which proposes an argument (subject), and immediately sub- joins to it its confirmation . That from contraries is, when
an argument (subject) is confirmed from its contrary.” Ernesti L. c. In. Ph. P. i. Sect. i. ch. x. 123, with which comp. 155. — Gal. iii. 21 ; see Gnom. — 2 Thess. iii. 20, on s7 ng ov 6'sXsi spyd^G&ai, /xqds scOisru. — Heb. xii. 8 ; 1 John v. 1. See Gnom. on passages quoted. In a more general signification, the appellation Enthymeme is used for a simple enunciation, in the Gnomon on Pom. vi. 17, u Ye were the servants of sin, but now ye have become obedient to righteous- ness.”
EPANALEPSIS is, when the same Verb, or the same words, two or more, are in the beginning of the preceding and in the end [immediately or mediately] of the following member : or, when the Antecedent is repeated after a Parenthesis : e. g. — John xiv. 11, kig- rsvsr's /xoi on syu sv ru Harpi, xai 6 Harrjp sv s/xor si ds /^, did rd spya avrd rticrsvsrs /ioi. — Pom. viii. 1—4, Ovdsv dpa vvv zardzpiixa roTg sv
