Verbatim

Verbatim[expr] represents expr in pattern matching, requiring that expr be matched exactly as it appears, with no substitutions for blanks or other transformations.

Verbatim[x_] will match only the actual expression x_.

Verbatim is useful in setting up rules for transforming other transformation rules.

Verbatim[expr] does not maintain expr in an unevaluated form.
