"Fire and Ice" by Robert Frost
Some say the world will end in fire,
Ο o Ο o Ο
Some say in ice.
o Ο
From what I've tasted of desire
o Ο o Ο Ο
I hold with those who favor fire.
Ο o Ο o Ο
But if it had to perish twice,
Ο o Ο Ο
I think I know enough of hate
o Ο o Ο Ο
To say that for destruction ice,
o o Ο o Ο
Is also great
Ο o
And would suffice。
Ο o
句尾的highlight是韵:
三组尾韵:“-ire,” “-ice,” and “-ate.”
句子中间highlight的单个字母:
是头韵(alliteration)。like: Some/say; favor/fire, the word starts with same letter.
句子下标的大O,是重读(accented syllable);(这是随意想出的标示。)
句子下标的小O,是次重读(secondary emphasized syllable)
