Words have different weight in different poets.  So

"Now who will behold
The royal captain of that ruined band
Walking from watch to watch, from tent to tent"

There is a Shakespearean muscularity that Creeley wouldn't have. Or D.H. Lawrence, "the insidious mastery of song / betrays me back, till the heart of me weeps to belong..."

There the anapests and the polysyllabic words give a different weight to the speech. The only way to feel this is memorize and recite.
