Adverb

iambically ‎(comparative more iambically, superlative most iambically)

1. According to iambic meter.
   • 2001, David Keppel-Jones, The strict metrical tradition (page 27)

     First, English phrases tend to open iambically on an unstressed word (article, preposition, or conjunction), as with The rising world and the waters in the line before us.
