1V. [Greek or Hebrew], Prosopopoeia, (signifying the feigning of a Person) is when an inanimate thing is introduced, as speaking like a rational Person. This Prosopopoeia we have treated of in the first Volume, Book 1. p. 92. among Metaphors, but that differs from this Figure, (1.) With respect to Subject, for that relates only to certain things inanimate, which are not Persons; whereas these concern Men also. (2.) With respect to the Predicate and Attributes: For in that, such Attributes of all kinds, from animate things, chiefly Men, as are translated to inanimate things, are treated of; but in this what relates only to Speech, and when mention is made in that of Speech, attributed to inanimate Creatures, there is regard had only to its Action or Act; but in this, there is respect to the formality of Speech, or Words actually pronounced, &c.
