The document defines and provides examples of three literary devices: 1) Blank verse is unrhymed iambic pentameter, with five iambs per line and ten syllables total, as used by Shakespeare in Hamlet. 2) A conceit is a far-fetched simile or metaphor that compares two unlike things, such as in Shakespeare's "Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?" and an Emily Dickinson poem. 3) A soliloquy is a dramatic device where an actor speaks their thoughts aloud when alone on stage, exemplified by a soliloquy from Shakespeare's Macbeth.
