“Sir Patrick Spens” You’ll notice some differences in translation.

Poetic Meter Meter: A generally regular pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables in poetry Foot : a unit of measurement for meter A vertical line | is used to separate feet Example: I like | big butts | and I | cannot | lie Those oth|er bro|ers can’t|deny Iamb: One unstressed syllable followed by one stressed syllable, such as rePORT. A half circle ( ŭ ) above the syllable is used for unstressed, an accent mark (ú) is used for stressed.

Poetic Meter A metrical line is named for its pattern and number of feet: Iambic Pentameter (5 iambs): I like | big butts | and I | cannot | lie It should be noted that a lot of poetry won’t fit exactly into these forms. Like above
