Explanation:
Inverted sentences are those in which the order in which the predicate and the subject is presented in an inverted form to what is conventionally seen. That is, usually, the subject appears before the predicate, however, in the inverted sentences this order is changed and the predicate appears before the subject.
The above phrases, taken from "The wife of Baths" is an example of this. However, it is necessary that you understand what is predicate and subject.
Subject is the element of the sentence in which the verb is acting. In the case of the phrase "Today there walks the holy friar himself", the verb is "walks" and he refers to "holy friar", since it is holy friar who is walking. In this case, "holy friar" is the subject of the sentence.
The predicate refers to everything the subject is doing, in the case of the sentence above, the subject is walking in a location. This in the sentence is represented by "Today there walks," this being the predicate.
