I Am a Strange Loop (77 page)

Page 376
There is a method to my madness…
There is a method to my madness in this footnote. In particular, the footnote both describes and represents an ancient meter called “paeonic”. What this means is that three syllables go by without a stress, but on the fourth a stress is placed, without its seeming (so I hope) to have been forced. I now will offer one small sample for your pleasure, and respectfully suggest that you try reading it aloud: “There is a
meth
od to my
mad
ness in this
foot
note…” In particular, I’ve got to use exactly forty feet because I’m mimicking two paragraphs of forty paeons each on page three hundred six-and-seventy of
I Am a Strange Loop.
