* Seleucia.--Lempriere and Labbe accent this word on the penultimate; but Ainsworth, Gouldman, and Holyok,, on the antepenultimate. As this word, according to Strabo, bad its penultimate formed of the diphong, Enternett. this syllable ought to have the accent; but as the antepenultimate accent is so incorporated into or tongue, 1 wou'd strongly recommend the pronunciation which an English scholar would give it at first sight, and i at is placing the accent on the u. This is the accent Milton gives it:

If, however, the English scholar wishes to shine in the classical pronunciation of this word, let him take care to
Fonounce the e likes only, and not like sh, which sound it necessarily bas, if the accent be on the astepenultimate
Byllable. See Rules 10 and $0.

Serapis.-There is not a dissenting voice among our prosodists against the pronouncing of this word with the accent on the penultimate syllable; and yet, to show the tendency of English pronunciation, when a ship this name had a desperate engagement with one of the French, which attracted the attention of the Public, every body pronounced it with the accent on the first syllable. Milton has done the same in his sublime description of the grandeurs of Pandemonium:

¦ Sergiolus.---I find this word in no dictionary but Lempriere's, and there the accent is placed upon ine penultimate Instead of ine antepenultimate syllable.

11) Seraois, is universally mispronounced by the mere English scholar with the accert on the

Smintheus.---This word, like Orpheus, and others of the same orm, has the accent on the first syllable; but poet: often contract the two last syllabies into one; as Pope

O, Smintheus, sprung from fair Latona's live,
Thou guardian pow'r of Cilla the divine!

See Idomeneus.

Sophronicus-I find this word in no prosodist but Labbe; and he places the accent on the penultimate syllable, like most other words of this termination, unless, says be any one think it more likely to be derived from Sophron, than from victory; that is, by uniting a general termination to the root of the word, than combining it with another word significant of itself; but as there is a Greek adjective devos signifying ordained by nature to temperance, it is much more probable that Sophronicus is this tuljective used substantively, than that is should be compounded of Logan and use, conquering temperance, and therefore the antepenultimate accent seems preferable.

Sporades-This word has the accent placed on the first syllable by all our prosodists; but a mere English ear is not only mclined to place the accent on the second syllable, but to pronounce the word as if it were a dissyllable, Spo-rade: but this is so gross an errour, that it cannot be too carefully avoided.

* S.-This word is generally beard, even among the learned, in wo syllables, as if written Sui-das. Labbe, however, make, if three syllables, and accerts the first; although, says he by what right I know not, it is generally pronounce with the accent on the penulate It may be o istrved, that if we place the accent on the first syllable, the the secord must be proncances lisee, and that the generei pronunciation which Labbe complains of that of placing the accent on the second syllable, mist, in on English pronunciation of Greek of fatin proof that u in its long open sound, as in alle if therefore, w. - It is sufficient the accent on the penultimate syllable Winton is, as Labbe observes, without good authority.
