A research notebook about a poetry-translation comparison contains these entries:
- Version R preserved the original rhyme and received a 4.6 out of 5 sound-pattern rating but a 3.2 imagery rating.
- Version I did not preserve rhyme and received a 3.1 sound rating but a 4.5 imagery rating.
- Both versions conveyed the poem's basic narrative.
The guiding question is: What trade-off did the two translations show?
