one last try, since I haven't been able to reproduce the weirdness
after restarting --
anapestic tetrameter, as others have said. But the words make anapests
because of the whole line - the same words tweaked only after the 7th
syllable make a perfectly regular IP line:
But our love, it was stronger far than that.
My apologies for all the noise
