    I wonder how you show accents with this editor. The accented sylablies are

    winds shake dar buds May That makes 5 of Iambic feet. The first one is kind o f iffy. I think the accent comes on winds but others may not.

    Rough winds' do shake' the dar'-ling buds' of May'

    I have no idea what that other dude was on about.
