1- The stress syllables are used to highlight the important words and concepts as in <em>To </em><em>speak</em><em> of </em><em>that </em><em>which </em><em>gives</em><em> thee </em><em>all </em><em>thy </em><em>might</em><em>? </em>(bold-faced parts are the stress syllables).

There is no evidence of sarcasm nor anger throughout the poem.
