Answer:

Trochaic tetrameter

Iambic pentameter

Explanation:

The first line is from the poem <em>The Lady of Shalott </em>written by Alfred Lord Tennyson. It is an example of a trochaic tetrameter. This means that it consists of four metrical feet called trochees. One trochee consists of one stressed (long) syllable followed by one unstressed (short) syllable.

The second line is from the poem <em>Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard </em>written by Thomas Gray. It is an example of an iambic pentameter - a type of meter where each line consists of five iambs. One iamb contains one unstressed syllable followed by one stressed syllable.
