Triolet

Another French poem, associated with the Rondeau, this one is eight lines, with two rhymes and two repeating lines. The first line is also used as the fourth and seventh lines, and the second and the eighth lines are the same. If A1 is the first repeated rhyme, and B2 the second, the format would look so:

A1
B2
A
A1
A
B
A1
B2

Again, there is an example in the introductory post.
