Trochaic septenarius
In ancient Greek and Latin literature, the trochaic septenarius is one of two major forms of poetic metre based on the trochee as its dominant rhythmic unit, the other being trochaic octonarius. It is used in drama and less often in poetry.
The trochaic septenarius is a catalectic line; that is, it consists of eight trochaic feet, with the last a half-foot. Only the seventh foot is regularly trochaic. The other feet can be varied with a spondee, dactyl, tribrach, or more rarely an anapaest. There is usually a diaeresis after the fourth foot. It is sometimes called catalectic trochaic tetrameter.〔James Halporn, Martin Ostwald, and Thomas Rosenmeyer, ''The Meters of Greek and Latin Poetry'' (Hackett, 1994, originally published 1963), pp. 67, 86.〕
An example can be found in the ''Pervigilium Veneris'' ("Vigil of Venus");
Crās ǎ|mēt quī| nūnqu(am) ǎ|māvīt,| quīqu(e) ǎ|māvīt| crās ǎ|mēt.
''Let him love tomorrow who has never loved, and let him who has loved love tomorrow.''

The trochaic septenarius is the only trochaic meter used in the dialogue portions of Latin plays (as distinguished from the ''cantica'' or sung portions), and was the favorite meter of Plautus.〔Halporn ''et al.'', ''Meters'', p. 77.〕 Its most famous singular use in Latin literature is possibly the ribald ''versus quadratus'' sung by the soldiers at the Gallic triumph of Julius Caesar.〔Suetonius, ''Divus Julius'' (51 ); Halporn ''et al.'', ''Meters'', p. 78.〕
Trochaic septenarius is used in the abecedarian Latin hymn ''Audite Omnes Amantes'' ("Hear ye, All Lovers"), believed to have been written by Saint Secundinus.〔An introduction to the study of medieval Latin versification〕
An equivalent form is also found in English verse, as for instance in Tennyson's ''Locksley Hall''.〔Halporn ''et al.'', ''Meters'', p. 75.〕
