Every A rhymes with every A, every B rhymes with every B, and so forth. Youâll notice this type of sonnet consists of three quatrains (that is, four consecutive lines of verse that make up a stanza or division of lines in a poem) and one couplet (two consecutive rhyming lines of verse). How a sonnet tells a story. Ah, but thereâs more to a sonnet than just the structure of it.
