Let us adduce the more frequent rhythmic patterns. Most frequent are those that occur more than 15 times, frequent ones have 5-14 occurrences and less frequent ones occur 3-4 times. I ignore those that only have 1 or 2 occurrences.
Isometric tunes. Most frequent: 7a (41) and 11a (31), frequent: 8a (13), sp3 (12), 8b (8) and 9b (5), less frequent: 6b (3).
Heterometric tunes. Most frequent: 8a-7a (30) and 13/14 (16), frequent: 7a-8a (12), 7a- 6b (7), 8a-6b (7) and rubato (6), less frequent: 5a-7a (3), 8a-5a-7a (3).
On the whole, salient patterns are 7a, 8a, 11a, further significant formulae are 8b, 6b, sp3 and 5a is also represented in heterometric forms.

In metrically special jir tunes the most frequent formula is 5b-5b (20), also frequent are 5c-5c (11), 6b-6b (10), 6b-5c (8), 5b-6b (7), 6b-5b (6) and 5c-6b (5), while rarer are 4a-5c (4) and 8a-8c (3). Lines 1–3 most frequently adopt the 5b, 5c, 6b, lines 2–4 the 8c, 9b and 7d patterns.
