dropped line Explanation: There is a slight difference between line'' and 'verse' (Sing &Pl) In your case is a "line" See 1° Link In poetry, a dropped line is a line which is broken into two lines, but where the second part is indented to remain sequential visually. For example, in the poem "The Other Side of the River" by Charles Wright, the first and second lines form a dropped line, as do the fourth and fifth lines:[1] It's linkage I'm talking about, and harmonies and structures, And all the various things that lock our wrists to the past. Something infinite behind everything appears, and then disappears. — Charles Wright, The Other Side of the River It would be nice to know the name of the author is referring to. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 51 mins (2016-03-16 11:28:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- A nice link for you DIZIONARIO DELLA TERMINOLOGIA FILOLOGICA https://books.google.it/books?id=tydUAwAAQBAJ&pg=PT243&lpg=P...
