Midweek Reflections on Odes
It is Wednesday. This week I am attempting to write an Ode. There are several four types of Odes: (1) English or Keatsian Ode, (2) Pindaric Ode, (3) Horatian Ode, and (4) Sapphic Ode. I am working on a English Ode and the deadline for completion is Saturday, October 1, at 9:00 PM Pacific Time.
The English (Keatsian) Ode is composed of three stanzas, with each stanza containing ten line of Iambic Pentameter. The rhyme scheme is a. b. a. b. c. d. e. c. d. e. All the stanzas have the same scheme, but each stanza has its own rhyme. I am working this ode on this week.
