		Octameter in poetry is a line of eight metrical feet.
		Trochaic octameter is a poetic meter that has eight trochaic metrical feet per line.
		Because of the length of the line, trochaic octameter lends itself to the heavy use of internal rhyme and alliteration and is also extraordinarily difficult to use consistently.

	Brainboost - how many feet are in a heptameter (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Because the memory can retain a rhythmical pattern of only a limited duration, heptameters and longer lines tend to receive from reader or hearer an unconscious restructuring: the heptameter commonly breaks into a tetrameter and a trimeter (as in ballad meter, q.v.), the octameter into two tetrameters, and so on.
		A verse of one foot (of any type) is called monometer ; of two feet, dimeter ; of three feet, trimeter ; of four feet, tetrameter ; of five feet, pentameter ; of six feet, hexameter ; of seven feet, heptameter ; of eight feet, octameter.
		Thus a verse consisting of two trochaic feet is called trochaic dimeter; of five iambic feet, iambic pentameter, and so on.

	Trochaic octameter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Trochaic octameter is a poetic meter that has eight trochaic metrical feet per line.
		The best known work in trochaic octameter is Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven, which utilizes five lines of trochaic octameter followed by a "short" half line (in reality, 7 beats) that, by the end of the poem, takes on the qualities of a refrain.
		Because of the length of the line, trochaic octameter lends itself to the heavy use of internal rhyme and alliteration and is also extraordinarily difficult to use consistently.

	Glossary of Poetic Terms from BOB'S BYWAY, Letter S
		To mark off lines of poetry into rhythmic units, or feet, to provide a visual representation of their metrical structure, as illustrated with the following lines from "Verses Supposed to be Written by Alexander Selkirk," by William Cowper (written in anapestic trimeter):
		The analysis and graphic display of a line's rhythm performed by scanning the line to determine its metrical categorization, e.g., iambic trimeter, trochaic octameter, etc., as a way of describing the rhythmical pattern of a poem.
		Scansion will also show the variations in the meter and the deviations from it, if there are any.

	Glossary of Poetic Terms from BOB'S BYWAY, Letter M
		In classic Greek and Latin versification, meter depended on the way long and short syllables were arranged to succeed one another, but in English the distinction is between accented and unaccented syllables.
		Metrical lines are named for the constituent foot and for the number of feet in the line: monometer (1), dimeter (2), trimeter (3), tetrameter (4), pentameter (5), hexameter (6), heptameter (7), and octameter (8); thus, a line containing five iambic feet, for example, would be called iambic pentameter.
		Rarely does a metrical line exceed six feet.

	Vietnamese Poetry
		Under the modern style, which has become increasingly prevalent after 1940, are two verse forms: the end-rhymed octameter, and the free verse, which is unrhymed, with no limit on the number of words in each line.
		Preferred by younger generations, the octameter was also extensively used in drama, especially during the decades of 1940-1960.
		A discussion of the octameter will not be complete without mentioning Da Thao, a well-known contemporary lyrical poet whose handling of this verse form has reached a rare degree of perfection.
