Iambic Pentameter Notes Shakespeare’s predominant meter was ________________________. A unit of iambic meter, called an __________________________, consists of a _______________________ followed by a _____________________: da-DUM.

Examples of words that fit this meter: _____________________ ____________________ _____________________ ____________________

Shakespeare wrote most of his poetry in ________________________ ______________________, ________________ _________________ of iambic beat to a line: “But SOFT, what LIGHT through YONder WINdow BREAKS.” “da DUM, da DUM da DUM da DUM da DUM.”

The Shakespearean Sonnet Shakespeare did not invent the __________________________ sonnet form, but he is recognized as its greatest practitioner; therefore, the English sonnet is commonly called the Shakespearean sonnet. The Shakespearean sonnet consist of _______________________________ (four-line stanzas), rhyming abab, cdcd, efef, and a ________________________ (two-line stanza), rhyming gg. Because each new stanza introduces a new set of rhyming sounds, the Shakespearean sonnet is well suited to English whish is less richly endowed than Italian with rhyming words.

As with the structure of the _______________________ sonnet, that of the Shakespearean sonnet influences the kinds of ideas that will be developed in it. For example, the three __________________________ may be used to present three __________________________ images, with the ____________________ used to ___________ them together or to _________________________ their significance. Or the quatrains can offer three pints in an ______________________ with the couplet serving to drive home the __________________________.

Directions:

1. Underline the last word in each line and then label the lines according to the rhyming scheme. (abab, cdcd, efef, gg)2. Draw a [bracket] around each quatrain and the couplet.

3. Label the unstressed and stressed syllable in two lines of your choosing.

Sonnet 18

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? 

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer's lease hath all too short a date: 

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimm'd; 

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimm'd;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;

Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st; 

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

What’s your reaction to hearing Shakespeare as a rap? Explain…
