Will give !
with tame content, and thou possess'd of thine?
great as thou art, and like a god in fight,
think not to rob me of a soldier's right.
at thy demand shall i restore the maid?

how many feet are in each line?

two
four
three
five

There would be two feet in each line! So, two is your answer.

the sentence does not violate the phrase structure second rule (introduced by noam chomsky) because noun phrases consist of a determiner such as a, the or every, and a noun. in the sentence, the noun phrase the cake includes a determiner (the) and a noun (cake).

on the other hand, the first rule indicates that a sentence encloses a noun phrase, followed by a verb phrase. the example sentence can be analysed as follows:

john (n) + ate (v) + the (det) + cake (n).

the answer should be

the simple past tense of strive.

hope this !
