Verse paragraph

Verse paragraphs are stanzas with no regular number of lines or groups of lines that make up units of sense.[1] They are usually separated by blank lines. It stands for a group of lines in a poem that form a rhetorical unit similar to that of a prose paragraph.

Milton's Paradise Lost and Wordsworth's The Prelude consist of verse paragraphs.

Verse paragraphs are frequently used in blank verse and in free verse.
