History
[edit]I added a little about the history of accentual-syllabic verse in English lit, but I feel it could still use more expansion--especially because at the moment it deals only with accentual-syllabic verse in English (as opposed to Russian, German, etc.), and because I don't know much about the state of contemporary accentual-syllabic poetry by Anglophone poets other than Americans. (I did include Larkin, who's not exactly contemporary....)65.213.77.129 (talk) 19:29, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit]"She Walks in Beauty", is NOT written in strict iambic tetrameter.
Meet in her aspect and her eyes ... Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
