| And here it will be proper to give the definition of the Greek satyric poem from Casaubon, before I leave this subject. |
| Satyros' name gives some of his game away, but rather than indulging his own satyric appetites, his role is restricted to encouraging and facilitating those of his master. |
| He was still grinning, but now the grin had become set, satyric, hideous. |
| The iambic measure then replaced the trochaic tetrameter, which was originally employed when the poetry was of the Satyric order, and had greater affinities with dancing. |
| His many treatises included illustrations of the tragic, comic and satyric stages, based on Vitruvius's innovative ideas regarding the vanishing point. |
| But the plot of this satyric or Silenic drama has been detected, and you must not allow him, Agathon, to set us at variance. |
