“
Take me the two former figures and put them into one, and it is that which the Greekes call _symploche_, the Latines _complexio_, or _conduplicatio_, and is a maner of repetion, when one and the selfe word doth begin and end many verses in sute & so wrappes vp both the former figures in one, as he that sportingly complained of his vntrustie mistresse, thus.
