Hyperbaton

Entertainment / Literature / Hyperbaton: A generic term for changing the normal or expected order of words--including anastrophe, tmesis, hypallage, and other figures of speech. E.g.,'One ad does not a survey make.' The term comes from the Greek for 'overstepping' because one or more words 'overstep' their normal position and appear elsewhere. For instance, Milton in Paradise Lost might write, 'High on a throne of royal gold . . . Satan exalted sat.' In normal, everyday speech, we would expect to find, 'High on a throne of royal gold . . . Satan sat exalted.'
