What poetic form does Tennyson use in "Ulysses"?

ASonnet

BBlank verse

CHeroic couplet

DFree verse

Answer:

B. Blank verse

Read Explanation:

Ulysses is written in blank verse, which means it has a consistent metrical pattern (iambic pentameter) but no rhyme scheme. This gives the poem a dramatic and natural speech-like rhythm, perfect for Ulysses’ introspective monologue.
