I'm suspicious of "homeoteleuton" being said of a row or a column.
Doesn't the word strictly reference same-ending individual _terms_
(within whatever grouping -- in this case, of course, the columns)?

According to the definition at
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/homeoteleuton I think it would be
more informative to say each column in the J Vocabulary is a homeoteleuton,
or to say that columns (plural) are homeoteleutons. But your statement
seems correct. Still one could argue that the first columns` endings are
not the same and because of that and because of the definition including
both same and similar endings, couldn't one argue that each row is more of
a homeoteleuton than each column?
Thanks.
