Baroco

In classical logic, baroco is a mnemonic word used to memorize a syllogism. Specifically, it has the first proposition universal and affirmative, but the second and third particular and negative, and the middle term the attribute in the two first. For example,

Every virtue is attended with discretion.

Some kinds of zeal are not attended with discretion.

Therefore some kinds of zeal are not virtues.
