Sonnet Form Sonnet: a strict and controlled poetic form. The form adds meaning to the text because the poet chose to write a sonnet with its form in mind. Sonnets have fourteen (14) lines written in iambic pentameter. Italian or Petrarchan Sonnets The fourteen lines are split into an octave (the first eight lines) followed by a sestet (the last six lines) The octave is most often has the rhyme scheme abbaabba, but can also be rhymed abbacddc, rarely it is rhymed abababab. The sestet can be rhymed cdecde or cdcdcd.

Types of Sonnets In Petrarchan sonnets, the problem or main idea is set up in the octave. There is a turn at the beginning of the sestet that releases the tension in the sonnet or changes the approach of the sonnet. Elizabethan or English or Shakespearean Sonnets The fourteen lines are split into three quatrains (four lines each) followed by couplet (two rhymed lines) The rhyme scheme is abab cdcd efef gg.

In Shakespearean sonnets, there are many different possibilities for organizing the ideas in the poem. Some sonnets present a problem in the first quatrain, complicate the problem in the second quatrain, and resolve the problem in the couplet. It can be hard to tell Shakespearean and Petrarchan sonnets apart, so make sure to take note of the rhyme scheme and punctuation when trying to determine what type a sonnet is. Sometimes lines are split into sonnets in a way that is misleading.
