Each line contains ten syllables

An iamb is only two syllables but Shakespeare's lines are made of 10 syllables. It's called iambic pentameter because two syllables (one unstressed and one stressed) five (penta) times equals 10 for the meter. Meter in poetry is the rhythm of the line or poem.

Shakespeare uses iambic pentameter in most of his poetry and plays because it is the meter most similar to everyday speech. This made it easier for performers to memorize and perform.

Answer: A) that Usen is not concerned about trivial matters

Explanation:

  • When he is describing the prayer, he is talking about how he and others are taught to pray to Usen for things that are helpful for life and that can encourage them to be brave and to feel safe. They had never used prayer against someone and they are always dealing fights on their own because those fight between people is considered in this excerpt like something that will pass and that it is not so important.

They were using prayer for the best things and not something that they cannot solve on their own.

Art [367]

The word vindicated, which comes from the Latin word vindicatus, originally meant "to avenge or revenge" but its meaning soon shifted to "clear from censure or doubt, by means of demonstration." When you are vindicated, your name is cleared. You might also prove that you're right about something.
