Answer: This is an example of a Shakespearean sonnet because of:
- the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
- the widespread use of iambic pentameter
- the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet
Explanation:
In 1609, Shakespeare published 154 sonnets, among which is Sonnet 19. The poem deals with the power of time.
This sonnet is representative of a Shakespearean sonnet because:
- It follows the typical the abab, cdcd, efef, gg rhyme scheme
- the widespread use of iambic pentameter (a rhyme scheme in which each line contains ten syllables -five pairs which are called iambs). For instance, <em>"But I forbid thee one more heinous crime." </em>
- the use of three quatrains followed by a couplet. The first twelve lines in a sonnet are divided into three quatrains (each containing 4 lines), followed by a couplet (two lines written in the same rhyme and meter).
Lady Macbeth’s soliloquy creates suspense by making readers wonder whether Macbeth has carried out the murder, as stated in option A and explained below.
<h3>What is suspense?</h3>
We say an author creates suspense when he or she leaves readers curious about what will happen next in the story. That is what Shakespeare does in the excerpt from Lady Macbeth's soliloquy that we are analyzing here.
The excerpt reveals the following:
- Lady Macbeth was supposed to murder the king.
- She was able to drug the guards to make them fall asleep.
- She did not kill the king because he looked like her father.
- She is unsure as to whether her husband was able to kill the king or not.
- She is afraid the guards have woken up.
Thus, readers are left wondering whether Macbeth has carried out the murder. Lady Macbeth reveals only enough to make readers curious, which means suspense is created.
With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.
