English

The correct answer is E. Trochaic trimeter

Explanation:

In poems, verses usually follow a strict structure of accented/ unstressed syllables known as metric. In the case of the trochaic trimeter, this is composed of three (trimeter) trochees, which are the combination of one stressed syllable and one unstressed syllable. This means in total there are 6 syllables and three trochees (poetic feet).

This occurs in the line “Little Lamb, who made thee?" because there are six syllables "Li/ttle/Lamb /who/made/thee?" and each pair of syllables includes a stressed syllable and one unstressed syllable or three trochees  Li/ttle/Lamb /who/made/thee? (stressed syllables are in bold)

Why is the focus of the story on Beowulf as a hero rather than as a king? What is the difference?
Alchen [17]
A hero is a savior figure, he stands up to injustices of people through acts of bravery and courage. He stands up against all odds for a specific cause. A King merely rules through ascension to the throne. Beowulf not only rids the Danes of Grendel, but also his mother and the dragon.
