, s^^ becomes by augmentation, e a In Fugue n, Book II, W. -T.

In augmentation and diminution the original accents of the motif are for the most part... re- tained it is only the durations that are altered. More transformative still, therefore, are those devices which actually shift the accents of the motif, its most salient and identifying features. The most important of these, which we may call "shifted rhythm, " is seldom found in Bach; for its frequent and exhaustive application we must look to Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms. As its name indicates, " shifted rhythm " con- sists in bodily shifting or transposing the motif in such a manner that its heavy beats become light, and its light ones heavy.
