3. Accent and emphasis. Abbott very properly remarks
(§ 453) that the syllable receiving the rhythmic accent is by no
means necessarily emphatic. It need only be emphatic relatively
to the unaccented syllable or syllables in the same foot, and may
be much less emphatic than the other accented syllables in the
same verse. In Shakespeare's time there was apparently a
greater stress upon the word " the" than is the case with us,
hence the following:
" And ydur | great un' | cle's, E'd | ward th'e | Black Pr'ince," |
i. ii. 105.
" With half | their f6r | ces, tM \ full prtde | of France." \
i. ii. 112.
" With silk' | en stream | era tU \ young Ph6e | bus fan'ning,"
u. Pro. 6.
Monosyllabic prepositions sometimes receive the accent, as in
"Discuss | untdus, | art thoii | officer." |	iv. i. 37.
Sometimes two hypennetric syllables are allowed before
pause at the end of a line.
"My. Inclin'e | to it | or n^;o? |
