  11. Ballad • Ballad: a song or songlike poem, often from the oral tradition, that tells a story. • Most ballads have a rhythm and rhyme and use simple language and refrains as well as other kids of repetition. • AKA- narrative songs • Ballads were popular in the medieval age. • They told the kind of sensational stories that make the headlines of today’s tabloids– stories about murder, love, revenge. • Typical ballad stanza is a quatrain (4 line stanza) with the rhyme scheme abcb.

  12. sonnet • Sonnet: a 14 line lyric poem, usually written in iambic pentameter, that has one of several traditional rhyme schemes. • 2 types: Petrarchan (Italian) and Shakespearean (English) • Petrarchan (Italian) Sonnet • 2 parts: An 8 line stanza called the octave where a problem or question is posed (rhyme scheme: abbaabba) and a 6 line stanza called the sestet where the answer or resolution is presented (cdecde OR cdcdcd, OR ccdeed). At the end of the octave or the beginning of the sestet, there is a line where the poem begins to take an abrupt turn this is called the volta.

  13. Petrarchan sonnet (Italian) Red: Octave Blue: Volta Black: Sestet • Sonnet 15 by Petrarch • Tears, bitten tears fall in a bitter rain, • And my heart trembles with a storm of sighs • When on your beauty bend my burning eyes, • For whose sole sake the world seems flat and vain. • But ah, when I can see that smile again, • That chaste, sweet, delicate smile, then passion dies • Withered in its own flaming agonies: • Gazing upon you, passion is lost and pain. • But all too soon my very soul is rocked • When you depart and with your passing dear • Pluck from my perilous heaven my stars, O Sweet! • Then at the last, but Love’s own keys unlocked, • My soul from our my body leaping clear • On wings of meditation finds your feet.
