Day 258:

Mar 15-Tristubh, also from India, the Vedas dealing in body parts, typically the chest and arms, as part of the spirits of nature. 11 syllables, as many quatrains needed. Heavy-Light accents are specific with s or L, then LsLL- then a caesura. The 4th or 5th syllables end with the caesura. Then finish with ssLsLL. Very tough to duplicate in English.
Recall the Triskubh---is of metered spirits 
Short Long short Long Long—short short Long short Long Long
Eleven sounds out—and rejoice the body
Caesura four, five—and the rest to finish.
