Like the previous exercise, I followed the directions and analyzed the rhythm and content of the given passages. Unlike the previous exercise, all three passages are from the same author; in fact, they are from the same work: Virginia Woolf's The Waves.
(Note: The Waves is still in copyright in the U.S. until 2026. This is ridiculous, since the author has been dead since 1941, but nevertheless current U.S. copyright law confirms this. However, the use of short excerpts in a scholarly fashion, like I have done below, is protected as Fair Use.)

( Analysis )
Next is an exercise in writing in meter. Should be easy enough – I'll post any poems it inspires.
