Lead edit

The term was defined as referring to metre both by syllable and stress, but broke the definition between the lead (containing the line "In quantitative verse...") and a lower paragraph (the other half: "In accentual verse...").

I united both halves to the lead, grouped the example that was in the lead with the other examples listed lower, fixed spelling of "anapaest" and hyperlinked that word.

No wording/sentence changes were made. Please see the {diff}.Joevanisland 19:32, 12 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hemlock is a trochee because the stress is on hem, and lock is a slack rather then a stress. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.138.65.67 (talk) 19:07, 10 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
