Can the rhythm of language increase its power?

Rhythm in English English has natural patterns of weak and strong syllables. Words like: Independent Motorcycle Emergency Football

Rhythm in English Shakespeare used the natural rhythm of English to write in Metre instead of Prose

Rhythm in English ‘Metre’ means: Every line follows a rhythmic pattern

SHABOOM ECHO ah 1, ah 2, ah 3, ah 4, ah 5

SHABOOM! Two households, both alike in dignity (In fair Verona, where we lay our scene)

Iambic Pentameter Five stresses per line ah 1 ah 2 ah 3 ah 4 ah 5 - / - / - / - / - / Two households, both a-like in dignity

Iambic Pentameter Does a line just have to consist of ten syllables to qualify as iambic pentameter?

Iambic Pentameter Change Two households, both alike in dignity to Noble families, with similar pride

Iambic Pentameter ah 1 ah 2 ah 3 ah 4 ah 5 / - / - / - / - / / - / - / - / - / Noble families, with similar pride

Iambic Pentameter Two households, both alike in dignity vs Noble families, with similar pride Strong beat in natural places

Iambic Pentameter CONTRACTIONS Don’t It’s

Iambic Pentameter CONTRACTIONS Let me be ta’en. Let me be put to death. I am content, so thou wilt have it so. (Romeo, 3.5.17–18)

Iambic Pentameter What if the words were not contracted? Let me be taken. Let me be put to death. I am content, so thou wilt have it so.

Iambic Pentameter Sounds natural Has a flowing rhythm Needs to be carefully constructed

Rhythm and Metre Metre is a pattern

Rhythm and Metre Metre is a pattern A pattern creates rhythm, which creates momentum and expectations
