Meaning of heroic couplet | Babel Free
Examples
“Soon after Surrey's translation of Virgil, blank verse became a persuasive rival to the heroic couplet. It moved into most forms of drama. Yet the heroic couplet held its own⟳ as a vehicle for meditative and satiric poetry and, until Miltons example took hold⟳ some half-century after his death, as a vehicle for narrative poetry also.”
