ome are loaves and some so nearly balls We have to use a spell to make them balance: "Stay where you are until our backs are turned!" We wear our fingers rough with handling them. Oh, just another kind of out-door game, One on a side. It comes to little more: There where it is we do not need the wall: He is all pine and I am apple orchard."

Answer:

- It has iambic pentameter.

Explanation:

Blank verse is elucidated as the literary device that involves a regular iambic pentameter(consists of five iambic feet(an unstressed or short syllable followed by a stressed or long syllable)).

In the given excerpt from Robert Frost's 'Mending Wall', <u>the use of 'iambic pentameter'(five metrical feet') makes it fall in the category of blank verse and helps the poet to create the desired rhythm and mood to convey the intended message effectively</u> ('remove the barriers(walls) that prevent socialization or human interaction) to the audience<u>.</u> The poet feels that 'walls are not good for humans as it promotes isolation and segregation.
