Answer 2

Answer:

C. Sonnets are 14 lines long.

Explanation:

The sonnet is a form of poetry that has evolved much ever since its creation. However, one trait that is common for all kinds of sonnets is that it must be 14 lines long. The way these lines are divided, and their rhyme scheme, changes according to the different traditions that have made this form of poetry evolve. In the English language, the sonnet is divided in 3 quatrains and one final couplet; Shakespeare is without a doubt its most grandiose representative.
