Question

What is writing style of poem?

• A. Grand style
• B. Iambic pentameter
• C. Blank verse
• D. None of this

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Blank verse

Wordsworth’s "Tintern Abbey" is written in blank verse, which means:

• Unrhymed lines

• Written in iambic pentameter (five metrical feet per line, each foot with an unstressed-stressed pattern)

So while iambic pentameter (option b) describes the meter, blank verse (option c) is the correct term for the overall style, since it refers specifically to unrhymed iambic pentameter — the form Wordsworth uses in this poem.
