WB1-7: Meter

The section on meter in the Hamilton book (193-202) is a bit too encyclopedic for our purposes, so I am taking some extra time to create some exercises that teach the points I want to make. You should scan those pages so that you will know what resources the book offers, but you won't be expected to do those exercises.

Meter is the recurring pattern of sounds that give poems written in verse the distinctive rythms. (Hamilton-198) It is expained with reference to the heartbeat of breathing. Such as a normal cycle. This amkes alittle easier to understand.
