There is little metrical variety in Lysistrata, but different types of rhythm are used structurally, as in Clouds, to mark off the main divisions of the action. Again as in Clouds., the play falls into three sections. A point of difference, however, is that the dominant metres of Lysistrata, trochaic and cretic, are characteristically, even boisterously, comic. An exceptional feature of the play is the antagonism of the two semichoruses.
