frequently also feminine or even disyllabic unaccented endings are used:
The dífference ’twíxt | the cóvetous ánd the pródigal.
Staple of News, I. iii. 39.

There are only slight differences from Shakespeare’s usage with regard to the caesura, inversion of accent, &c. Run-on lines, as well as rhyme and the use of prose, are common in his plays; some of his comedies are almost entirely written in prose.
§ 174. In Fletcher, on the contrary, run-on lines, rhymed verses, and prose are exceedingly rare.
Feminine and gliding endings, however (sometimes of three, and even of four supernumerary syllables), are often used; in some plays even more often than masculine ones. (For specimens cf. § [91].)
Feminine endings, combined with disyllabic or polysyllabic first thesis, are common; now and then we find epic caesuras or other theses in the interior of the line:
They are too hígh a méat that wáy, | they rún to jelly.
Loyal Subj. I. i. 371.
