A similar correspondence may be produced between the middle and the opening of a sentence, as in the line: te nemus Angitiae, vitrea te Fucinus unda. Aen. vii. 759 Thee did Angitia's grove bewail, Thee too the glassy waves o' the Fucine lake. The correspondence is to be found in te (coming first in one and second in the other clause). Or the middle may correspond to the end, as in the following sentence: This ship, laden with the spoil of Sicily, while it was itself a portion of the spoil. Verr. v. xvii. 44. Nor will it be questioned that a like effect may be produced by the repetition of the middle of both clauses. Again, the end may correspond with the beginning. Many grievous afflictions were devised for parents and for kinsfolk many. Verr. v. xlv. 119.
2.35
There is also another form of repetition which simultaneously reiterates things that have already been said, and draws distinctions between them. Iphitus too with me and Pelias came, Iphitus bowed with age and Pelias Slow-limping with the wound Ulysses gave. Aen. ii. 435. This is styled ἐπάνοδος by the Greeks and regression by Roman writers.
