Horace odes (Carpe diem!) -- meter: 5th (greater) Asclepiad 1. Recited (or chanted, rather) in my best effort for an accurate quantitative meter, w/ frame drum showing ictus. 2. simply reciting the lines in a stress-based (non quantitative) meter. -- the simple grammar and word order permit this 'ode' to be easily comprehended 3. My English translation, which closely mimics the grammar and content, but not the meter.
