which describes the rhythm and meter in the poem?

a pattern of one unstressed syllable followed by two stressed syllables
a pattern of two stressed syllables followed by one unstressed syllable
a pattern of one stressed syllable followed by two unstressed syllables
a pattern of two unstressed syllables followed by one stressed syllable

The rhythm and meter in the poem is described as a pattern of two stressed syllable followed by one unstressed syllable.

Option B

Explanation:

By considering the ending words in each sentence, one can realize that a pattern is being followed. League is a stressed word, followed by onward, which is also a stressed word. It is followed by death, which is an unstressed word. This means that the two stressed syllable pattern keep followed by one unstressed syllables. This is also followed here for rhythm and meter in the poem. And, clearly shows that this pattern is repetitive in nature throughout the sentence.

The answer is b

Explanation:

i love romeo and xo

it is a!

not b because i don't see how this would make them look dangerous..

not c because that just doesn't make sense..

and not d because this too doesn't make sense, it does not really put the audience on edge in my opinion.

a makes the most sense, romeo's statement that in staying to speak to juliet he is risking his life, leads the audience to worry about his safety. obviously if he says that if he stays, he will be at risk, so of course this makes the audience worry for his safety!

answer is a) romeo's statement that in staying to speak to juliet he is risking his life, leads the audience to worry about his safety.
