Week 3: Cywydd llosgyrnog
Form: Cywydd llosgyrnog (ku-with los-gear-nog)  Open in new Window.
Number of lines: Down to the individual poet
Rules: A 12th century Welsh form written in six-line stanzas. Each stanza is comprised of two lines of eight syllables and a third line of seven syllables. Lines 1 and 2 rhyme and cross-rhyme with syllable 3 or 4 of line 3. This pattern is then followed for the next three lines. Lines 3 and 6 also rhyme.

This gives a stanza pattern of:

x x x x x x x a
x x x x x x x a
x x a x x x b
x x x x x x x c
x x x x x x x c
x x c x x x b

Choices for the poets to make this week: This form can be composed of as many or as few stanzas as the poet wishes.
