The Petrarchan sonnet, perfected by the Italian poet Petrarch,
divides the 14 lines into two sections:
an eight-line stanza (octave) rhyming ABBAABBA,
and a six-line stanza (sestet) rhyming CDCDCD or CDECDE.
Please Note:
Some sources say this form should be 10 syllables per line,
while others do not. So, it's up to you to stick to the rule or not.
However, either way, you must follow the rhyming scheme.
The following section applies to this forum item as a whole,
not this individual post.
