Heptameter Heptameter is a type of meter where each line of verse contains seven metrical feet. It was used frequently in Classical prosody, and in English, the line was used frequently in narrative poetry since the Romantics. The meter is also called septenary, and this is the most common form for medieval Latin and vernacular verse, including the "Ormulum". Its first use in English is possibly the "Poema Morale" of the twelfth/thirteenth century.
Breviary The Breviary (Latin: "breviarium") is a book in many Western Christian denominations that "contains all the liturgical texts for the Office, whether said in choir or in private."
