William Blake's poem below is an example of what could be considered trochaic dimeter--though it could equally well be considered a monometer consisting of amphimacers: / * /.

To qualify as trochaic dimeter, it must be seen as an instance of catalexis, which is what occurs in most trochaic lines, where the last unstressed syllable is cut off. Here it would be diagrammed as: / * | / (*).

                                   /    * | /    (*)
                                  Little boy,
                                  Full of joy;
                                  Little girl,
                                  Sweet and small;
                                  Cock does crow,
                                  So do you;
                                  Merry voice,
                                  Infant noise
