Iambic Pentameter
Iambic Pentameter is a type of meter. A meter is a component
of
poetry that determines the
number of lines in a
poem, play, or song. It also determines the number of syllables in each line and the arrangement of those syllables as long or short, accented or unaccented.Iambic Pentameter is the meter most commonly used by Shakespeare in his plays.Components:10 syllables per line Contains unstressed and stressed syllablesThe rhythm of each line sounds like: ba-BUM / ba-
BUM / ba-BUM / ba-BUM / ba-BUMSlide6
Example Iambic Pentameter Lines
ba
-
BUM
/
ba-BUM / ba-BUM / ba-BUM / ba-BUM
I went / to the / store to / buy some / wheat breadThis section is called an iambus (a pair of syllables). Each iambus is made up of one ba-BUM.Examples from Romeo and Juliet:That thou / her maid / art far / more fair / than she Two house- / holds, both
/ alike / in dig- / nityThe second example proves that it doesn’t necessarily have to be two words with one syllable each, it just has to be two syllables in each iambus to make 10 in a line, so words with multiple syllables are allowed in iambic pentameter.Slide7
Sonnets
Sonnets are types of poems. There are many different kinds of sonnets besides the Shakespearean Sonnet. All sonnets contain 14 lines and are in iambic pentameter.

As after sunset fadeth in the west, (d)Which by and by black night doth take away, (c)Death's second self, that seals up all in rest. (d)In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire (e)That on the ashes of his youth doth lie, (f)As the death-bed whereon it must expire (e)Consumed with that which it was nourish'd by. (f) This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong, (g)To love that well which thou must leave ere long. (g)
