answers Second, the verse in Evangeline il
Dactylic Hexameter and is constructed OF
the model of the classic epic. Evangelin,
is classified as Romance Epic. 9TH, tn,
movement in both trochaic and dactyli
measure is gliding. the trochee moves lik,
Hiawathas boat among the kenabeeks; tn
dactyl moves like Evangeline's boat in searcl
!; of Gabriel. The hero in Hiawatha goes no
by slow steps. but like the wind, and is al
ways successful and liz ht hearted; the hero
inc in Evapgeline heaves heavy sigh fro,
a broken heart as she trndges on from yea
, to year in fruitless endeavor. Hence, tn
easy moving trochaic tetrameter is suited t.
the theme in Hawatha; and the slow NOV
ing dactycic hexameter, to the theme il
; Evangeline.
