| Note
that the theses of feet
one and two are long by position. All
other syllables are either long or short by nature.
Note also
that divisions between feet do not necessarily
correspond to those between words. For example, it takes an entire word
(arma) plus part of another (vir-) to comprise the first dactyl.
Still, the last foot (oris) is all contained
within a single word. |
