on one side, to omit; ? beside + ? to leave.] (Rhet.)
A pretended or apparent omission; a figure by which a speaker
artfully pretends to pass by what he really mentions; as, for
example, if an orator should say, ``I do not speak of my
adversary's scandalous venality and rapacity, his brutal
conduct, his treachery and malice.'' [Written also
{paralepsis}, {paralepsy}, {paralipsis}.]
