group only. It is treated as a aiza (Cx. 16, PP. II 208 ) as also as a FETIT (PP. I 196-198). As a guy it is made ap of 8 ATS, with the first caesura after the 8. syllable and the second after the 16. This distribution of the caesurae has a rhythmic significance as it changes the anapaest rhythm of the middle portion to a dactylic one. This fact is indicated by the 10-scheme of the SAT of the A1277-type. It is 6+4/4+4/6+4+4. The difference between the face of the sun type and that of the HTZETT type is that the two shorts and one long in the non-final arts of the former are replaceable in the latter respectively by one long aud two shorts. In other words all other forms of a tha are permissible except the Fitur, But, as the two specimens from the Sr. show, in practice there is a strong tendency to preserve the rhythm of the aufger-type i. e. the opening and the close anapa estic, the middle dactylic.
In the case of one of our hors the fact that separate stanzanumbers (Sr. 22,23 ) are given for each half raises one issue. Ck. 43 defines a metre called as a four-lined A# metre with the scheme 18 (odd), 13(even). The rhyme in the lines of CK. 43 indicates that a caesura is to be recognised after the 10. mora, so that 10+8 (odd), 13(even) is the scheme. Further PP. 99 defines this very as a two-lined metre made up of 7 adulas and 3 shorts, with the caesurae after the 10. and the 18. mora. Now granting the liberty of considering the final syllable anceps, Sr. 22 or 23 (or any 1 i for that) is quite a good war. Perhaps it makes for a greater degree of precision to name the metre of SR. 22 and 23 77. But following the comm. here it is considered as a stasi, wrongly divided into two.
(d) Strophic Metres. $ 17. A strophic metre results from the combination of two stanzas in two (or more) different metres to form a unit. In the Sr. we have three strophic metres: , ary (three varieties), ESE54.
