No, he usually uses ten syllables. The name of the verse line which Shakespeare uses in Romeo and Juliet, and in the rest of his plays, is iambic pentameter. "Iambic" because the dominant foot is an iamb, an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable. "Pentameter" because there are five feet in every line. Here an example, with a vertical rule between each foot and the stressed syllables capitalized: "In fair Verona, where we lay our scene" in FAIR | verON | a WHERE | we LAY | our SCENE
the first line of the poem is: 2 syllables second line: 4 syllables third line: 6 syllables fourth line: 8 syllables fifth line: 2 syllables
a hexaduad is a poem consisting of 6 couplets. each couplet rhyme couplet1-each line has 2 syllables couplet2-each line has 6 syllables couplet3-each line has 8 syllables couplet4-each line has 4 syllables couplet5each line has 6 syllables couplet6-each line has 4 syllables
One stressed syllable followed by two unstressed is called a dactyl, and a line of verse written in that style is called dactyllic. Here are the other kinds of metrical feet as well: iamb: unstressed, stressed trochee: stressed, unstressed dactyl: stressed, unstressed, unstressed anapest: unstressed, unstressed, stressed amphibrach: unstressed, stressed, unstressed amphimacer: stressed, unstressed, stressed bacchius: unstressed, stressed, stressed antibacchius: stressed, unstressed, unstressed pyrrhus: unstressed, unstressed spondee: stressed, stressed tribrach: unstressed, unstressed, unstressed molossus: stressed, stressed, stressed
The stressed syllables in the poem "Concord Hymn" by Ralph Waldo Emerson vary depending on the meter and rhythm of each line. To determine the stressed syllables, you should read the poem aloud and listen for the natural emphasis placed on certain syllables within each line.
the repetition of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line of poetry
There is only 1 syllable for this word.
The term is scansion. It involves analyzing a line of poetry to determine the meter by marking the stressed and unstressed syllables.
In Sonnet 16, each line follows the iambic pentameter rhythm which stresses every other syllable. The stressed syllables are typically on even-numbered syllables, such as the second, fourth, sixth, eighth, and tenth.
The meter tells you the number of stressed and unstressed syllables in a line of poetry.

iambic pentameter
A metrical foot.
....In verse and poetry, meter is a recurring pattern of stressed (accented, or long) and unstressed (unaccented, or short) syllables in lines of a set length. For example, suppose a line contains ten syllables (set length) in which the first syllable is unstressed, the second is stressed, the third is unstressed, the fourth is stressed, and so on until the line reaches the tenth syllable. The line would look like the following one (the opening line of Shakespeare's "Sonnet 18") containing a pattern of unstressed and stressed syllables. The unstressed syllables are in blue and the stressed syllables in red.Shall I com PARE thee TO a SUM mer's DAY?Each pair of unstressed and stressed syllables makes up a unit called a foot. The line contains five feet in all, as shown next:....1.............. 2.................3..............4................ 5Shall.I..|..com.PARE..|..thee.TO..|..a.SUM..|..mer's DAY?
In poetry, the meter is the basic rhythmic structure of a verse.
