Heroic couplet : ウィキペディア英語版
Heroic couplet
A heroic couplet is a traditional form for English poetry, commonly used in epic and narrative poetry, and consisting of a rhyming pair of lines in iambic pentameter. Use of the heroic couplet was pioneered by Geoffrey Chaucer in the ''Legend of Good Women'' and the ''Canterbury Tales''.,〔Hobsbaum, Philip. ''Metre, Rhythm and Verse Form''. Routledge (1996) p.23〕 and was perfected by John Dryden in the Restoration Age.
==Example==
A frequently-cited example illustrating the use of heroic couplets is this passage from ''Cooper's Hill'' by John Denham, part of his description of the Thames:
:O could I flow like thee, and make thy stream
:My great example, as it is my theme!
:Though deep yet clear, though gentle yet not dull;
:Strong without rage, without o'erflowing full.
