No. A tercet is a three-line stanza. A sestet is a six-line stanza.
what is a 5-line stanza
A line. It would hardly bear the title of 'stanza'.
A nine-line poem is technically called a nonet, but the scarcity of the form means that the word is very rarely used, or found.Most poems set in nine-line stanzas follow the pattern of Sir Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene: eight lines in iambic pentameter, followed by a ninth line set in iambic hexameter (the extra foot, as well as the 12-syllable line itself, is called an Alexandrine.)The usual rhyme scheme for such a stanza is A-B-A-B-B-C-B-C-C. The form is popular enough to have acquired its own term: a Spenserian stanza.
In the beginning of each stanza there is a question, that is then answered below and further elaborated on the third line, I would therefore state that the mood is somewhat questioning, in the last stanza this changes to a philosophical tone. The third line of each stanza is the power a flag has on a nation. Hope this helps
