El dulce lamentar de dos pastores, [2, 6, 8, 10] A
Salicio juntamente y Nemoroso, [2, 4, 6, 10] B
he de cantar, sus quejas imitando; [1, 4, 6, 10] Ccuyas ovejas al cantar sabroso [4, 8, 10] B
estaban muy atentas, los amores, [2, 6, 10] A
de pacer olvidadas, escuchando. [3, 6, 10] C
Tú, que ganaste obrando [1, 4, 6] C
un nombre en todo el mundo [2, 4, 6] D
y un grado sin segundo, [2, 6] D
agora estés atento sólo y dado [2, 4, 6, 8, 10] E
al ínclito gobierno del estado [2, 6, 10] E
albano, agora vuelto a la otra parte, [2, 4, 6, 10] F
resplandeciente, armado, [4, 6] E
representando en tierra el fiero Marte; [4, 6, 8, 10] F
Look how only three lines have an accent on an odd-numbered syllable. There are no accents on odd numbered syllables after syllable 3. My rules are simple. Content words get an accent; articles, clitic pronouns, one syllable prepositions, etc... do not. Note how seamless is the combination of lines of 7 and 11 syllables. Every line rhymes, but not predictably.
