Rhyme 101 Perfect Rhyme: The words are in complete aural correspondence. An example would be: Certain and Curtain. Forced Rhyme: An unnatural rhyme that forces a rhyme where it should not otherwise be. Slant Rhyme: The words are similar but lack perfect correspondence. Example: found and kind, grime and game. Masculine Rhyme: Has a single stressed syllable rhyme. Example: fight and tight, stove and trove. Feminine Rhyme: A stressed syllable rhyme followed by an unstressed syllable. Example: carrot and garret, sever and never. Visual Rhyme: A rhyme that only looks similar, but when spoken sound different. Example: slaughter and laughter. This type of rhyme can be used more to make a visual pattern than to make a aural rhyme.

OWL Poetry Notes Sound and Meter Poetic Feet and Line Length

Poetic Feet There are two parts to the term iambic pentameter. The first part refers to the type of poetic foot being used predominantly in the line. A poetic foot is a basic repeated sequence of meter comprised of two or more accented or unaccented syllables. In the case of an iambic foot, the sequence is "unaccented, accented". There are other types of poetic feet commonly found in English language poetry.

Two Types of Feet Primary Feet Iambic: destroy (unaccented/accented) Anapestic: intervene (unaccented/unaccented/ac cented) Trochaic: topsy (accented/unaccented) Dactylic: merrily (accented/unaccented/unac cented) Substitutive Feet Spondaic: hum drum (accented/accented) Pyrrhic: the sea/ son of/ mists (the "son of" in the middle being unaccented/unaccented) The second part of defining iambic pentameter has to do with line length.

Line Length The poetic foot then shows the placement of accented and unaccented syllables. But the second part of the term, pentameter, shows the number of feet per line. In the case of pentameter, there are basically five feet per line. The types of line lengths are as follows: One foot: Monometer Two feet: Dimeter Three feet: Trimeter Four feet: Tetrameter Five feet: Pentameter Six feet: Hexameter Seven feet: Heptameter Eight feet: Octameter

Line length and poetic feet are most easily seen in more formal verse. What most free verse poets find more useful than this strict form is accentual meter, where the accents only are counted in the line (although when scanned, the syllables are still marked off...it is just that their number is not of as much import.)

Things to note about this poem: There is no "set" meter in this poem, but the meter clearly plays a key role in its effectiveness. In particular it is worth noting the line that stands alone (line 7). Notice that Merrill moves toward iambic pentameter in line 6 and then sustains it through line 7. Here there is an inversion from the typical set- meter/variation sequence that is found in a lot of more formal poetry. Here the variation comes in the move into set meter, rather than varying from a set meter.
