Yeah, and? you follow the punctuation regardless. Reading out loud would sound retarded if you didn't follow the punctuation.

The whole point of blank verse is that you don't thump the end of the line.

Have you read Tennyson? Or Shakespeare, for that matter?

Don't be so condescending, obviously I have. Do you think I'm not aware that blank verse can have end-stopped lines, or that it can contain within it rhythms approaching the lyrical? But one of the great virtues of blank verse is its freedom, and that is truer for Milton than perhaps for any other poet.
