In poetry, a Ballad stanza is the four-line stanza, known as a quatrain, most often found in the folk ballad. This form consists of alternating four- and three-stress lines. Usually only the second and fourth lines rhyme (in an a/b/c/b pattern). Assonance in place of rhyme is common. Samuel Taylor Coleridge adopted the ballad stanza in The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, alternating eight and six syllable lines.* All in a hot and copper sky! * The bloody Sun, at noon, * Right up above the mast did stand, * No bigger than the Moon. * Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, lines 111 – 114The longer first and third lines are rarely rhymed, although at times poets may use internal rhyme in these lines. * * In mist or cloud, on mast or shroud, * It perched for vespers nine; * Whiles all the night, through fog-smoke white, * While the creatures crooned * Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, lines 75 – 78A more modern example: * * The Sweeney's doing ninety 'cos * They've got the word to go. * They get a gang of villains * In a shed up at Heathrow. * Squeeze, Cool For Cats. |
