Salvete Graeci,
A few years ago someone posted an interesting example of a 19th cen. attempt to translate a fragment of Homer into English following strict hexameter meter. I have searched for this on Textkit, but cannot find it. Could someone with a better memory direct me to it, amabo te?
Valete,
Timotheus

I asked our excellent Textkit search engine to search for "Homer + English hexameter" and got this:
viewtopic.php?t=67&highlight=homer+english+hexameter
Could it be what you're looking for?
Cheers,
