Stanza Examples

A stanza is a group of lines that form the basic metrical unit in a poem. So, in a 12-line poem, the first four lines might be a stanza. You can identify a stanza by the number of lines it has and its rhyme scheme or pattern, such as A-B-A-B. There are many different types of stanzas. Some of the most common stanza examples include:

Couplets - Stanzas with two lines that rhyme

But if thou live, remember'd not to be,

Die single, and thing image dies with thee.

- "Sonnet III," William Shakespeare

Tercets - Stanzas with three lines that may or may not rhyme, also known as triplets

Oh, Galuppi, Baldassaro, this is very sad to find!

I can hardly misconceive you; it would prove me deaf and blind;

But although I give you credit, 'tis with such a heavy mind!

- "A Toccata of Galuppi's," Robert Browning

Quatrains - Stanzas with four lines that may or may not rhyme

He gives his harness bells a shake

To ask if there's some mistake.

The only other sound's the sweep

Of easy wind and downy flake.

- "Stopping by Woods On a Snowy Evening," Robert Frost

Other types of stanzas include:

Quintain - Stanzas with five lines that may or may not rhyme

In the golden lightning

Of the sunken sun,

O'er which clouds are bright'ning,

Thou dost float and run,

Like an unbodied joy whose race is just begun.

-"Ode to a Skylark," Percy Bysshe Shelley

Sestet - Stanzas with six lines that may or may not rhyme

And when I feel, fair creature of an hour!

That I shall never look upon thee more,

Never have relish in the faery power

Of unreflecting love! - then on the shore

Of the wide world I stand alone, and think

Till Love and Fame to nothingness do sink.

- "When I Have Fears That I May Cease to Be," John Keats

Septet - Stanzas with seven lines that may or may not rhyme

But our love it was stronger by far than the love

Of those who were older that we,

Of many far wiser than we,

And neither the angels in Heaven above,

Nor the demons down under the sea,

Can ever dissever my soul from soul

Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.

-"Annabel Lee," Edgar Allan Poe

Octave - Stanzas with eight lines that may or may not rhyme

When I consider how my light is spent

Ere half my days in this dark world and wide,

Lodg'd with me useless, though my soul more bent…

"Doth God exact day-labour, light denied?"

I fondly ask. But Patience, to prevent…

- "Sonnet 16," John Milton
