Prosody (or met­rics) describe the prop­er­ties of verse lines and are con­sti­tuted by two para­me­ters: “Me­ter” and “Line Length”. This sec­tion is a mockup of a future met­ri­cal index. For now, it only includes a list of abstract meters (iamb, trochee, etc.), neglect­ing line length. This sub­sec­tion allows the user to find poems writ­ten in a given meter (the list of poems reflects the cur­rent state of the infor­ma­tion sys­tem).

Texts writ­ten using spe­cific met­ri­cal forms (iambic tetram­e­ters, trochaic pen­tame­ters, etc.) can be found using Advanced Search. A full met­ri­cal index is planned, as a sep­a­rate task, for the next stage of the pro­ject.
