This course is for first year students only. An
introduction to the disciplines involved in reading and
writing verse. Many basic texts will be examined, so that
the student will be well acquainted with excellent models
when writing the weekly assignment. The emphasis is as much
on accurate imitation as on originality. For freshmen grown
bored with their own free verse.
