Onegin stanza sometimes Pushkin sonnet http www.thepoetsgarret.com sonnet pushkin.html refers to the verse form popularized or invented by the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin through his novel in verse Eugene Onegin . The work was mostly written in verses of iambic tetrameter with the rhyme scheme aBaBccDDeFFeGG , where the lowercase letters represent feminine endings i.e., with an additional unstressed syllable and the uppercase representing masculine ending i.e. stressed on the final syllable . Unlike other traditional forms, such as the Petrarchan sonnet or Shakespearean sonnet , the Onegin stanza does not divide into smaller stanzas of four lines or two in an obvious way. There are many different ways the sonnet can be divided for example, the first four lines can form a quatrain , or instead join with the cc to form a set. The form s flexibility allows the author more scope to change how the semantic sections are divided from sonnet to sonnet, while keeping the sense of unity provided by following a fixed rhyme scheme. Also, being written in iambic tetrameter imparts a stronger sense of motion than other sonnets, which use the more common iambic pentameter . John Fuller s 1980 The Illusionists and Jon Stallworthy s 1987 The Nutcracker used this stanza form, and Vikram Seth s 1986 novel The Golden Gate Vikram Seth novel The Golden Gate is written wholly in Onegin stanzas. The Onegin stanza is also used in the verse novel Equinox by Australian writer Matthew Rubinstein , serialized daily in the Sydney Morning Herald and currently awaiting publication in the biography in verse Richard Burgin by Diana Burgin in the verse novel Jack the Lady Killer by HRF Keating title borrowed from a line in Golden Gate in Onegin stanza rhymes but not always preserving the metric pattern and in several poems by Australian poet Gwen Harwood , for instance the first part of Class of 1927 and Sea Eagle the first employs a humorous Byronic tone, but the second adapts the stanza to a spare ... more details

Multiple issues cleanup April 2009 onesource April 2009 A strophe forms the first part of the ode in Ancient Greek tragedy, followed by the antistrophe and epode . In its original Greek setting, strophe, antistrophe and epode were a kind of stanza framed only for the music, as John Milton wrote in the preface to Samson Agonistes , with the strophe chanted by a Greek chorus as it moved from right to left across the scene. Etymology Strophe IPAc en icon s t r o f i respell STROH fee Greek language Greek wikt , turn, bend, twist , see also phrase is a concept in poetry versification which properly means a turn, as from one Foot prosody foot to another, or from one side of a chorus to the other. Poetic Structure In a more general sense, the strophe is a pair of stanzas of alternating form on which the structure of a given poem is based, with the strophe usually being identical with the stanza in modern poetry and its arrangement and recurrence of rhymes giving it its character. But the Greeks called a combination of verse periods a system, giving the name strophe to such a system only when it was repeated once or more in unmodified form. Origins & Development It is said that Archilochus of Paros Archilochus first created the strophe by binding together systems of two or three lines. But it was the Greece Greek ode writers who introduced the practice of strophe writing on a large scale, and the art was attributed to Stesichorus , although it is probable that earlier poets were acquainted with it. The arrangement of an ode in a splendid and consistent artifice of strophe, antistrophe and epode was carried to its height by Pindar . Variant Forms With the development of Greek Meter poetry prosody , various peculiar strophe forms came into general acceptance, and were made celebrated by the frequency with which leading poets employed them. Among these were the Sapphic, the Elegiac, the Alcaic, and the Asclepiadean strophe, all of them prominent in Greek and ... more details

refimprove date December 2011 A cumulative song is a song whose Verse popular music verse s are built from earlier verses, usually by adding a new stanza to the previous verse. A simple cumulative song having n verses is structured as stanza sub 1 sub stanza sub 2 sub stanza sub 1 sub stanza sub n sub stanza sub n 1 sub stanza sub 1 sub or stanza sub 1 sub stanza sub 1 sub stanza sub 2 sub stanza sub 1 sub stanza sub 2 sub stanza sub n sub sometimes with a common chorus included with each verse. When sung, the repeated stanzas are sometimes varied or abbreviated. Cumulative songs are popular for group singing, in part because they require relatively little memory memorization of lyrics , and because remembering the previous verse to concatenate it to form the current verse can become a kind of game. Examples of cumulative songs The Twelve Days of Christmas song The Twelve Days of Christmas Green Grow the Rushes, O I Am a Fine Musician from 2 episodes of the Dick Van Dyke Show There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly Old McDonald Had a Farm Alouette song Alouette Eh, Cumpari I Have a Song to Sing, O from Gilbert & Sullivan s opera The Yeomen of the Guard Children, Go Where I Send Thee Children, go where I send thee I Bought Me A Cat The Green Grass Grew All Around Song of Love from the musical Once Upon a Mattress The Rattlin Bog The Barley Mow There s a Hole in the Bottom of the Sea http www.superlyrics.com lyrics kGRU0UWmc1 H J There 27s A Hole In The Bottom Of The Sea lyrics by Veggie Tales.html ref http www.youtube.com watch?v bG3x1Ufr 58 Song There s a Hole in the Bottom of the Sea in YouTube.
