Shakespeare's Language..

A blank verse is a poem written in iambic pentameter. It is either stressed or unstressed and does not always have to rhyme. 

A. This quote means, 'Where is the light coming from?'
B. This quote means, 'You are the more lovelier and the more patient/temperate.' 
C. This means, 'If it is completed when due, it would be done with.'
D. This quote means, 'Where have they gone?'

Thou saucy, lean-witted minimus!
Thou knavish, rump-fed snipe!
Thine roynish, mad-bred malkin!
Thine gnarling, shrill-gorged hempseed!
