24. How to figure out rhythm / meter in poetry
Take a few notes . . .

25. It starts with syllables . . .

26. From Syllables to Feet
A Metrical Foot is a single unit of measurement that is repeated within a line of poetry. Metrical Feet are made up of STRESSED And UNstressed syllables = RHYTHM. All the Metrical Feet that are used in English poetry and verse have exactly one STRESSED syllable and one or two UNstressed syllables.

27. From Syllables to Feet ~ / = 1 foot ~ ~ / = 1 foot / ~ = 1 foot
Pattern
~ / = 1 foot
~ ~ / = 1 foot
/ ~ = 1 foot
/ ~ ~ = 1 foot
/ / = 1 foot

28. How many feet????
These terms show number of stresses or feet to a line:
One stress (foot) per line = mono + meter =
monometer
two = di + meter = dimeter
Three = tri + meter = trimeter
Four = tetra + meter = tetrameter
Five = penta + meter = pentameter
Six = hex + a + meter = hexameter
Seven = hep + a + meter = heptameter
Eight = oct + a + meter = octameter

30. From Feet to Emphasis / Stress
“iamb” is the name of the meter da-DUM as in the word convince. Notice that each syllable must be marked.
“Trochee” is the name of the meter DUM-da as in the word borrow.
Other types of meter have their own names, too:
“Anapest” is the name of the meter da-da-DUM as in the world contradict.
“Dactyl” is the name of the meter DUM-da-da as in the word accurate.
“Spondee” is the name of the meter DUM-DUM as in the word seaweed.
There are lots of other names for different meters, but that’s enough for now.
If a poem mostly has iambs, it is called “iambic.” Shakespeare wrote most of his plays and poems in iambic pentameter.

31. iambs and other weird patterns
Along with the iamb, there are other possible patterns:
Pattern Noun Adjective
~ / iamb iambic
~ ~ / anapest anapestic
/ ~ trochee trochaic
/ ~ ~ dactyl dactylic
/ / spondee spondaic
We describe a poetic line, then, by its type and number of poetic feet. For example:
5 iambs = iambic pentameter
4 trochees = trochaic tetrameter

34. Rhythm & Meter
“iamb” is the name of the meter da-DUM as in the word convince. Notice that each syllable must be marked.
“Pentameter” begins with the prefix “pent,” which refers to the number 5 (e.g., pentagram and pentagon). The root word “meter” refers to measurement.
A line of “iambic pentameter” has five measures of da-DUM. Example:
But soft! What light through yonder window breaks?
Read the above line aloud and put more stress on the syllables with the accent marks.
If you’re not sure if you’ve identified the meter in a line of poetry correctly, reverse the accented and unaccented syllables and then read it aloud. If it sounds wrong, you were right the first time. Give it a try with the line above. Stress the syllables with the unaccented marks. It should sound strange.

35. 4 trochees = trochaic tetrameter
Do you hear the drum beat?
4 trochees = trochaic tetrameter

37. This sounds like galloping maybe? Or maybe just marching forward?

38. Do you hear the heavy military sound?
/~~ = dactyl
# beats/line =?

39. Do you hear the slow, wistful sigh?
~/ = ???
Line 1 beats = ?
Line 2 beats = ?

40. Rhythm & Meter
How does understanding meter help you understand a poem? If the meter is very simple, like that in a children’s book, that will help you know that the message or theme of the poem is probably humorous. A complicated meter might indicate a more complicated theme.
Just as a poet might change the rhyme scheme for a specific purpose, a change in meter might indicate that the poet is trying to change the topic or make some other type of transition. Shakespeare usually had his noble characters (e.g., kings, queens, generals, etc.) speak in iambic pentameter, but his lower characters (e.g., servants and peasants) would speak in regular language.
If you’re wondering why Shakespeare chose to write in iambs, maybe it’s because the iamb is the rhythm of the heart beat!

41. Common rhythms
The iamb is very common in the English language; we often speak in iambic pentameter without realizing it:
~ / ~ / ~ / ~ / ~ /
I’d like to have you meet a friend of mine.
~ / ~ / ~ / ~ / ~ /
Did you take out the garbage yesterday?

42. Rhythm and Meaning / ~ / ~ / ~ / ~
While the iamb ~ / easily represents a natural rhythm and emphasis often used in English, the trochee / ~ gives a feeling of pressing forward, of more urgency or insistence:
/ ~ / ~ / ~ / ~
Charging down the King’s path steady
On to meet our death charge ready
The anapest is used for a galloping kind of rhythm ~~/ ~~/ or for a light, almost comic feeling:
~ / ~ ~ / ~ ~ /
There once was a fellow at Drew
Who spotted a mouse in his stew,
Told the waiter about it, who said
“Well don’t shout it”
Or the rest will be wanting one too!”

44. Shakespeare the non-Romancer
My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips’ red; If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun; If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.

45. Shakespeare the Romancer
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.

46. #20 I am Iambic
Pick one of the quatrains to place into the boxes on your chart.
My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red than her lips’ red;
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
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.
