X67ot, logos, speech, account, ratio + doiS-^, ooidc, song; 30 called because the verse resembles prose). In Greek and Latin prosody, a rhythm in three- eighths time, based on the trochee ( — -), but ad- mitting the .substitution of other feet with great freedom. The most common substitutions are the cyclic dactyl ( — - •", — ^-), which can usually be employed but once in the .same verse: the irra- tional trochee ( — »; the triseme (i — ); the tribrach ( - w w); and occasionally in the first foot an iambus i ). Anacrusis, an unaccented initial syllable, is employed in certain forms. The principal logacedic forms are the follow- ing: I. DIPODY. 1. Adonic: Tdrvta Bvfjjov I terruit |urbem II. TRIPODIES.
