Excerpt from Parallelism in Isaiah

The remainder of the monostichs will almost invariably be found in need of emendation for other reasons than that of form, and since the reconstruction is most satisfactorily accomplished when parallelism is simultaneously restored, the conclusion is logically inevitable that, in these cases, defect in parallelism is due to defect in the text, and conversely that, once the right of emenda tion is admitted, the emendation must be on the basis of parallelism.
