of Rome (with the exception only of Valerius Flaccus and a
few genuine elegies of Tibullus' second book) the spondees
considerably exceed the dactyls; Ovid alone has known -

how to transform, by the magic of his art, the slow but stately
spondees of his native speech into the light and graceful
dactyls of
Hellenic
verse.

As pale it lay upon the rosy couch:
'Twas icy, and the cold ran through his veins;
Then sudden it grew hot, and all the pains
Of an
unnatural
heat shot to his heart.
