Edgar Allan Poe's poem, "The Raven," is written in the trochaic octameter. Let us break down what that means:
1. trochaic - this refers to the meter of the poem, trochee. Trochee is the type of meter which consists of two syllables, where the first one is stressed (written in capital letters), and the second one is unstressed (written in lower letters), like in option C
