A verse without rhyme especially that which uses iambiac pentameter
"Be HOLD/ how LIKE/ a MAID/ she BLUSH/ es HERE"
This excerpt is an example of iambic pentameter.
An iambic pentameter is a form of a metrical line in which each line contains five unstressed syllables followed by five stressed syllables. They are usually arranged in an alternating pattern.
Shakespeare followed a new tradition of using blank verse in iambic pentameter. He used this form in his writings as it followed the same tone as that of a human’s heartbeat, a horse’ gallop or with the beat of any music. Iambic pentameter added natural speech and the rhythm of life in his verses.

Explanation:
The excerpts from "The Royal House of Thebes" and "The Story of a Warrior Queen" are similar because both express the theme that women are as capable as men.
Both stories present the idea that <u>women are as fearless and determined as men</u>.<u> Antigone and Boadicea are two female characters that are convinced of what they want and they know how to reach it</u>. Furthermore, they are both tragic heroines. In "The Royal House of Thebes", Antigone sacrifices her own life by disobeying Creon and burying Polyneices, her brother. Moreover, in "The Story of a Warrior Queen", Boadicea, the great queen, decides to poison herself before being attacked by her biggest enemies: the Romans.
