Wording concerns the expressions used, meaning concerns what the verse conveys, and arrangement concerns how its words are joined and ordered. A poet may retain many words but change their order, or replace most words while preserving the idea.
Analysis therefore asks three separate questions:
1. Is the thought the same?
2. Are the original words retained?
3. Is their construction and sequence retained?
The pattern of answers helps classify the kind of borrowing.
