The metrix package can be used to print the prosodics/metrics
of (latin) verses. It provides macros to typeset the symbols
stand alone and in combination with syllables (including
automatic alignment like seen above). Furthermore it defines a
new brevis and a longa accent and a bow to contract syllables.

metrix – Typeset metric marks for Latin text
The package may be used to type the prosodics/metrics of (latin) verse; it provides macros to typeset the symbols standing alone, and in combination with symbols, giving automatic alignment.
The package requires TikZ (including the calc library), xpatch, and xparse (thus also requiring the experimental LaTeX3 environment).
