In which metrical pattern did Shakespeare write Macbeth?

Shakespeare wrote Macbeth in blank verse, which is unrhymed iambic pentameter. In iambic pentameter, each line of verse has ten syllables, and the stressed syllables fall on the first, third, fifth, seventh, and ninth syllables. Blank verse is a form of poetry that is not written in a fixed rhyme scheme, but instead relies on the rhythm of the meter to create a sense of order and structure.
