Despite not having native speakers, Ancient Greek provides some secondary sources for the study of its prosodic structure. In the present paper, I combine the study of the word-order with that of the metrics of the iambic trimeter in order to determine the relation between verb and second argument, both in their position within the sentence and in prosody. It will be shown that there is a tendency that make the second argument appear beside the verb and both elements part of the same intonation unit. This tendency is greater when it involves personal pronouns than with Noun Phrases, which can be isolated if they are complex and long.
