Abstract

How is verse distinguished from prose in an oral medium, and how do listeners know they are listening to verse? What changes when metrical and free verse, or mixed forms, are sung, recited musically, or recited? How do listeners distinguish individual verses, how ought free verse be recited, and how should verses that were originally sung be written down?
