Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

After analysing the dominant pattterns of the earliest accentual verse, he turns to Old English metre, and looks closely at the typical length of the halflines, the phenomenon of clashing stress, and the nature of light lines.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
