What do you remember from previous literature lesson?

iambic pentameter 

pentameter: a line of 10 syllables. However, each line can be divided in 5 segments and these are called feet (penta = Greek )

Shall I / compare / thee to / a sum/ mer's day/

 iamb: there are five iambs of two syllables in every line of Sonnet 18. The second syllable is always stressed. compare = an iambic word

iambic pentameter

But soft! What light through yon-der win-dow breaks?

It is the East and Ju-liet is the sun!

A-rise fair sun and kill the en-vious moon,

Who is al-rea-dy sick and pale with grief

That though her maid art far more fair than she

• Can you find a personification in this part?

Whoso List to Hunt

Whoso list to hunt, I know where is an hind,

But as for me, alas, I may no more.

The vain travail hath wearied me so sore,

I am of them that furthest cometh behind.

Yet may I by no means my wearied mind

Draw from the deer, but as she fleeth afore

Fainting I follow. I leave off therefore,

Since in a net I seek to hold the wind.

Whoso list her hunt, I put him out of doubt,

As well as I may spend his time in vain.

And graven with diamonds in letters plain

There is written, her fair neck round about:

Noli me tangere, for Caesar's I am,

And wild for to hold, though I seem tame.
