Hypallage \Hy*pal"la*ge\, n. [L., fr. Gr. ?, prop., interchange,
   exchange, fr, ? to interchange; ? under + ? to change.]
   (Gram.)
   A figure consisting of a transference of attributes from
   their proper subjects to others. Thus Virgil says, "dare
   classibus austros," to give the winds to the fleets, instead
   of dare classibus austris, to give the fleets to the winds.
   [1913 Webster]

         The hypallage, of which Virgil is fonder than any other
         writer, is much the gravest fault in language.
                                                  --Landor.
