Shakespearean sonnets, also known as English sonnets, differ from Elizabethan sonnets primarily in their structure and rhyme scheme. A Shakespearean Sonnet consists of three quatrains followed by a final couplet (ABABCDCDEFEFGG), allowing for a shift in theme or argument in the concluding couplet. In contrast, the term "Elizabethan sonnet" is often used to refer to the broader category of sonnets from the Elizabethan era, which includes both Shakespearean and Spenserian sonnets. The Spenserian sonnet, for instance, features an interlocking rhyme scheme (ABABBCBCCDCDEE) that distinguishes it from Shakespeare's format.
