Read this excerpt from “Paradise Lost” by John Milton. Which two lines are in iambic pentameter?
OF Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit choice
Of that Forbidden Tree, whose mortal tast
Brought Death into the World, and all our woe,
With loss of Eden, till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat,
Sing Heav'nly Muse, that on the secret top
Of Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspire
That Shepherd, who first taught the chosen Seed, choice
In the Beginning how the Heavens and Earth
Rose out of CHAOS: or, if Sion hill choice
Delight thee more, and SILOA'S brook that flowed choice
Fast by the Oracle Of God, I thence
Invoke thy aid to my adventurous song,
That with no middle flight intends to soar
Above th' Aonian mount, while it pursues
Things unattempted yet in prose or rhyme.
And chiefly Thou, O Spirit, that dost prefer choice
Before all Temples th' upright heart and pure,
Instruct me, for Thou know'st; Thou from the first
