斯凯尔顿体
该术语得名于其始创者和主要实践者英国诗人约翰·斯凯尔顿(约1460—1529)。其特征是:诗行通常很短(一般为三至七个音节,含二至三个重音,有时也用更多的音节),从不采用交叉韵,一韵可以任意延伸;采用排比句作为主要修辞手段。例如:
And if ye stand in doubt
Who brought this rhyme about
My name is Colin Clout.
I propose to shake out
All my conning bag.
Like a clerkly hag.
For though my rhyme be ragged,
Tattered and jagged
Rudely rain beaten,
Rusty and moth eaten,
If ye take well therewith
It hath in it some pith.
(Colin Clout)
(科林·克劳特)
