Uvedale Price : dissertation on modern pronunciation of classical Greek
Uvedale Price to Elizabeth Barrett, 20 December 1826: 'When Luxmoore was with us, a little before he called at Hopend [sic; for Hope End, Barrett's family home], I shewed him what I had just been writing on the Charter-house mode of pronouncing [classical Greek], chiefly that of their passing over the vowel to the consonant in iambi & pyrrhics but continuing to accent them, as we do, on the first syllable: He read it with more interest than he is apt to do on such subjects, & wished me to go on with it'.
