Step-by-step explanation:

Since I couldn't find the lines that are missing in you question, I would tell you something about iambic pentameter so you can find it yourself.

  • Iambic pentameter is mostly used in verse drama or poetry. It is a type of the most common metric line in English poetry and it is used in blank verse, poetic forms and more. Like the name says ''Pentameter'' it is referring to a line that is including five ''feet''. Thoe lines are having ten syllables which are considering a decasyllabic verse.

Shakespeare had mostly used iambic pentameter in his work such as sonnets or plays.
