_Palindromical Lines._--In addition to the verses given by your
correspondent H. H. BREEN (Vol. vi., p. 449.), I send you the following, as
perhaps the most remarkable of its kind in existence. It is mentioned by
Jeremy Taylor as the inscription somewhere on a font. Letter by letter it
reads the same, whether taken backward or forwards:
[Greek: NIPSON ANOMÊMA MÊ MONAN OPSIN.]
"Wash my guilt, and not my face only."
