Answer:Iambic tetrameter- excerpt 1: Of waters in a land of change  (Louise Bogan, "A Tale")

excerpt 2:  This coyness, lady, were no crime.  (Andrew Marvell. "To His Coy Mistress")

Iambic trimeter- excerpt 3:  In some melodious plot  (John Keats, "Ode to a Nightingale")

excerpt 4:  Of credit and renown  (William Cowper. "The Diverting History of John Gilpin")

Explanation:

The meter of poetry is the rhythmic structure of a line in poetry. This means the beats in the line of poetry follow a certain pattern, which becomes the meter.

Iambic tetrameter consists of four iambic feet in a line, with eight syllables. On the other hand, iambic trimeter is when the line has three units, meaning six syllables.

Thus, the given lines of poetry with their respective meter patterns are as follows-

Iambic tetrameter-

excerpt 1: Of waters in a land of change (Louise Bogan, "A Tale").

excerpt 2: This coyness, lady, were no crime. (Andrew Marvell. "To His Coy Mistress").
