Its work Meter and traditional rate/rhythm of the worms. Crow and Root explore, with methods resulting from data-processing linguistics and on whole of worms from a new size (80 000 worms of the theater of Crow and Racine), the relations which the meter and the rate/rhythm in the worms maintain. Taking support on the theory of the rate/rhythm of Pierre Lusson and Jacques Roubaud, he proposes a metric model arranged hierarchically of the alexandrine, where each level of the model makes up of a metric unit which is repeated.
