Fermata (verse doctrine)
Pause (of Italian fermare , 'stop ) referred to in the Verslehre the marking of the Versschlusses by a volume expansion .
If this strain to rhyme syllables , we speak with sung texts of the Middle Ages and the early modern period ( Meistersang , evangelical hymn ) from a Fermatenreim . However, the application and applicability of the term are uncertain or controversial.
