Blank verse, has no rhyme, but is does have a definite rhythm created by the careful structuring of iambic feet - patterns of stressed and unstressed syllables. One poetic foot is a single unit that is repeated in a steady rhythm to a line of verse. The iambic foot (or iamb) consists of an unstressed syllable followed by a stressed syllable, like "inSIST" or "reSIST."
The pentameter portion of iambic pentameter refers to the number of feet (iambs) that are repeated in each line of verse, in this case five. So, remember that a line of blank verse in iambic pentameter does not rhyme, but it will always follow this rhythm:
weak STRONG weak STRONG weak STRONG weak STRONG weak STRONG
Here's an example of blank verse from Hamlet. As you read it, listen for the iambic pentameter rhythm:
But, woe is me, you are so sick of late,
So far from cheer and from your former state,
That I distrust you. Yet, though I distrust,
Discomfort you, my lord, it nothing must.
