Frontes [noun]

Those parts which lie on the outside of the posterior half of the eyes, between which the Frons and Vertex intervene.

Frontal stripe of female narrow in front, so broad behind that it entirely fills up the width of the frons.

Poetry, p. 25, which is of similar structure, we find the doubling of the frons.

Decipit / Frons prima multos—First appearances deceive many.

In many stanzas the first and the last part (frons and cauda) are anisometrical.

Here the frons is connected with the cauda, which recurs in each stanza as a kind of refrain, by means of concatenatio.

They are, however, found already in Provenal poetry, and consist of the forehead (frons) and the tail or veer (cauda).

If the frons precedes the versus, the same distinctions, of course, are possible between the two chief parts.

Most of these stanzas admit of being looked upon as tripartite on account of the bipartite structure of the frons.

In Cowley, now and then, a stanza is found with a preceding frons (on the scheme a a5 b c b c4).
