Abstract

Metrics, as a science of verse, has, at certain times, been the target of disparagement and controversy on the part of poets, of teachers of literature, and even of the theorists of this very science. In this present study, what is undertaken is a heedful defense and appreciation of metric forms which are deemed to be a substantial and essential component of poetry.
