Answer:

- “Human kind cannot beat very much reality.”

Step-by-step explanation:

In a line of poetry, an iamb is a foot or beat consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, or a short syllable followed by a long syllable. For example, deLIGHT, the SUN, forLORN, one DAY, reLEASE. ... This line has five feet, so it's written in pentameter.
