Each line contains ten syllables

An iamb is only two syllables but Shakespeare's lines are made of 10 syllables. It's called iambic pentameter because two syllables (one unstressed and one stressed) five (penta) times equals 10 for the meter. Meter in poetry is the rhythm of the line or poem.

Shakespeare uses iambic pentameter in most of his poetry and plays because it is the meter most similar to everyday speech. This made it easier for performers to memorize and perform.

He is overwhelmed by the vast size of the landscape at first but rapidly overcomes this apprehension, feeling that the experience has enriched him.

im prett sure this is the one it is asking The poet and narrator may be the same person. It is written in first person as if the narrator is speaking and describing an experience to listeners. if  not im very srry for wasting ur time
