Italian term

anapesto in seconda sede

Italian to English Art/Literary Linguistics Ancient Greek phylology
This is from a thesis in Greek phylology. I have problems finding the correct translation for the Italian 'sede'. Can you help? Thank you!

Here is the context:
La presenza di un anapesto (in questo caso, in seconda, terza o quarta sede) è più che ammissibile in un trimetro giambico di Sofocle.
Proposed translations (English)

anapest at second place

This poem shows examples of anapests and iambs combinations. And at some places iambs are substituted by anapests. The poem is written in anapestic trimeter in each line, which means there are three anapests in each line.
