Iambic-anapaestic verses of two stresses and feminine ending are found in Longfellow's poem _The Men of Nidaros_ (p. 579); the arrangement into stanzas of six lines being marked only by the syntactical order, in the same way as in Southey's poem _The Soldier's Wife_ (ii. 140), in which, too, four-foot dactylic verses are combined in stanzas of three lines. Two-foot dactylic and dactylic-trochaic verses of a similar structure to those mentioned in Book I, § 73, are joined to rhymeless stanzas of five lines (the first four have feminine endings, the last a masculine one) by Matthew Arnold in his poem _Consolation_ (p. 50). Stanzas of five iambic verses of three and five measures, corresponding to the formula _a₃ b₅ c₃ d₅ e₃_ occur in his poem _Growing Old_ (p. 527). In Charles Lamb's well-known poem, _The Old Familiar Faces_, written in stanzas of three lines, consisting of five-foot verses with feminine endings, the division into stanzas is marked by a refrain at the end of each stanza. For examples of these different kinds of verses the reader is referred to the author's _Metrik_, ii, §§ 255-8. In conclusion it may be mentioned that many of the irregular, so-called Pindaric Odes (cf. Book II, chap. viii) are likewise written in rhymeless anisometrical stanzas. NOTES: [179] Specimens of earlier hexameter verse with detailed bibliographical information may be found in our _Metrik_, ii, §§ 249-50; and especially in C. Elze's thorough treatise on the subject, _Der englische Hexameter_. Programm des Gymnasiums zu Danzig, 1867. (Cf. F. E. Schelling, _Mod. Lang. Notes_, 1890, vii. 423-7.) BOOK II.
