Anyone writing an English Sonnet for one thing. Shakespeare is the most obviously well-known author of such sonnets, but many poets used the form. The English sonnet is composed of three quatrains (3 groups of 4 lines each), which totals twelve lines. At the end of the poem, a rhyming couplet (2 lines) finishes it off. Thus the English sonnet totals 14 lines of verse. There are other poetic forms involving three quatrains as well.
