The public is necessary, but the private must not be abolished by it; and the individual must not be swallowed up by the concept of the social man.

Stephen Spender

Can the ear hear a thirteen-syllable line as consisting of thirteen syllables? I don't think so, but I think that a series of thirteen-syllable lines (supposing that was the length chosen) would, after a while, begin to have a characteristic resemblance. For the most part, though, counting the syllables seems to be something that works, if it works, for the poet. It is a private method of organization.

James Fenton
