PALINDROME (Gr. 7raXty, again, and Spbos, a course)

This article appears in Volume V20, Page 633 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAI-PAS
PALINDROME (Gr. 7raXty, again, and Spbos, a course) , a
verse
  or
sentence
  which runs the same when read either backwards or forwards. Such is the
verse
 
Roma
  tibi subito motibus ibit amor;
or
Signa te, signa, temere me tangis et angis;
or
vii,(iov k vo,7are i7 ovav o>liw.
Some have refined upon the
palindrome
 , and composed verses each word of which is the same read backwards as forwards: for instance, that of
Camden
 
Odo tenet mulum, madidam mappam tenet
Anna
 ,
Anna
  tenet mappam madidam, mulum tenet Odo.
The following is still more complicated, as
reading
  in four ways--upwards and downwards as well as backwards and forwards:
S A T O R A R E P O
T E N E T O P E R A R O T A S
