Sticking this here for lack of a better place. This essay (attached) is the original inspiration for my fitful start at memorizing Lucretius. The proposed Interlinear Edition had its conceptual beginning with Prof. Harris' method. Scroll to section 2 for his ideas on the subject. The seed has been several years in germinating, I'm glad I was able to find it again this evening!
