Forms of verse

[Lukourgos]

Can anyone remember and complete the following:--

Trockee trips from long to short / from long to short in solomn sort

Firm Spondee...............................................

Not able to keep up with Dactyl Trisyllable etc. etc.

etc.etc.

[dr pop]

Trochee trips from long to short.
From long to long in solemn sort
Slow Spondee stalks; strong foot! yet ill able
Ever to come up with Dactyl tri syllable.
Iambics march from short to long.
With a leap and a bound the swift Anapests throng.
One syllable long, with one short at each side,
Amphibrach is haste with a stately stride.

The pleasant ramblings of Samuel Taylor Coleridge-blooming A-Levels!!

[Lukourgos]

Many thanks dr pop. You're right on the ball
