The Model of Poesy (1599), by William Scott, is a Renaissance-era, English literary treatise about the art of poetry, which presents a theoretical description of what is poetry, and practical guidelines about how to write well.

The French alexandrine is a syllabic poetic metre of 12 syllables with a medial caesura dividing the line into two hemistichs (half-lines) of six syllables each. It was the dominant long line of French poetry from the 17th through the 19th century, and influenced many other European literatures which developed alexandrines of their own.
