ACCENT:
•All poetry is
written in some particular meter; that is, poem are: made from a collection of
lines which have a certain number of syllables, some of which
are accented (receive stress) and some of which are not (receive no
stress). We scan a line of poetry when we mark over each word whether or not it
should be accented:
—a slanted dash (/)
indicates that a syllable is to be stressed
while one that is not to be stressed is marked È.
