To apply these results to the Saturnian verses extant, let us select a few examples: "Gnaivod patre prognatus | fortis vir sapiensque." patre or patred retains its length by position, i.e. its metrical accent, against the natural accent patre. In the case of syllables on which the ictus does not fall the quantity and accent are indifferent.
