04Fourth: the third element, part one — words
There is no language peculiar to poetry: every word may be used by the poet and loaded with whatever senses and suggestions he wants, so that itachieves in its place what no other word could achieve.
The old rhetoricians and critics dwelt on the standards of the beauty of the poetic word:
Clarity and precision of sense.
Distance from discord (tanāfur) among its letters.
The eloquence of fronting and delaying (taqdīm and taʾkhīr).
Mentioning and omitting.
Emphasis.
The links between sentences and the rest.
