How they Brought the Good News from Ghent to Aix by Robert Browning (poetry reading)
I keep on trying to read this fiendishly difficult poem. It never really comes out as I would like it. It's not just galloping rhythm - that's only in the background - in the foreground is action and drama. Every word should sound just like it does in speech - not made to fit the metre.

"Spring and Fall: to a young child" by Gerard Manley Hopkins (poetry reading)
There are differing opinions about Sprung Rhythm: there's much dispute, even among experts. Asking a poetry professor about Sprung Rhythm is like asking a racing driver about "understeer": you end up no wiser - because it depends so much more on practice than on theory.
There's a problem with traditional metre - such as iambics in which every other syllable is stressed - in that it is restricting to write lines with exactly the same number of syllables which have an alternating pattern of s
