Multidimensional Language

Some Poets' Approaching Poetry
Samuel Johnson (from Preface to Shakespeare):The end of Shakespeare):The writing is to instruct; the end of poetry is to instruct by pleasing. William Wordsworth (from Preface to Lyrical Ballads): Ballads): Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings. Robert Frost: A poem begins with a lump in the throat, a Frost: homehome-sickness or a love-sickness. It is a reaching-out lovereachingtoward expression; an effort to find fulfillment. A complete poem is one where the emotion has found its thought and the thought has found the words.

Meters of English poetry
There are 3 basic types of meters: Accentual meters: meter (the number of syllables per line is variable, the number of accents per line is not), Syllabic meter (there is a fixed number of syllables per line, the number of accents is variable), Accentual—syllabic meter (combination of these types is characterized by a regular pattern in the number of both syllables and stresses in each line).

Poetry1THE POETRY OF DRESSRobert Herrick (1591-1674)A sweet disorder in the dressKindles in clothes a wantonness:--A lawn about the shoulders thrownInto a fine distraction,--An erring lace, which here and thereEnthrals the crimson stomacher,--A cuff neglectful, and therebyRibbons to flow confusedly,--A winning wave, deserving note,In the tempestuous petticoat,--A careless shoe-string, in whose tieI see a wild civility,--Do more bewitch me, than when artIs too precise in every part.衣裙甜雅的噪乱点燃野性的火焰：——双肩耷拉的草坪显露闲暇的靓景，——凌乱飘逸的花边使肚兜平添缀点，——漫不经心的袖口缎带蓬松地漂流，——一股汹涌的波浪让裙摆起伏跌荡，——系扎松乱的鞋带狂野但并不懈怠，——与精美艺术相比，叫人更欣喜痴迷。
2THE SOLIT ARY REAPERWilliam Wordsworth (1770-1856)Behold her, single in the field,Yon solitary Highland Lass!Reaping and singing by herself;Stop here, or gently pass!Alone she cuts and binds the grain,And sings a melancholy strain;O listen! for the Vale profoundIs overflowing with the sound.No Nightingale did ever chauntMore welcome notes to weary bandsOf travellers in some shady haunt,Among Arabian sands:A voice so thrilling ne'er was heardIn spring-time from the Cuckoo-bird,Breaking the silence of the seasAmong the farthest Hebrides.Will no one tell me what she sings?--Perhaps the plaintive numbers flowFor old, unhappy, far-off things,And battles long ago:Or is it some more humble lay,Familiar matter of to-day?Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain,That has been, and may be again?Whate'er the theme, the Maiden sangAs if her song could have no ending;I saw her singing at her work,And o'er the sickle bending;——I listen'd, motionless and still;And, as I mounted up the hill,The music in my heart I bore,Long after it was heard no more3How Do I Love Thee?Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.I love thee to the depth and breadth and heightMy soul can reach, when feeling out of sightFor the ends of Being and ideal Grace.I love thee to the level of everyday'sMost quiet need, by sun and candle-light.I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.I love thee with the passion put to useIn my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.I love thee with a love I seemed to loseWith my lost saints, -- I love thee with the breath,Smiles, tears, of all my life! -- and, if God choose,I shall but love thee better after death.我是怎样地爱你？让我逐一细算。

reputed as the most democratic art. Poetry means a quality or a state more than a form. Poetry as a genre must be a particular form combined with a particular quality. For this very reason, poetry is to be defined in terms of degree. Poetry is a literary genre that communicates experience in the most condensed form.
