Explanation:
A sonnet consists of 14 lines made up of 4 different stanzas. In the first stanza(ABAB), the 1st and 3rd line rhyme, and the 2nd and 4th line rhyme. The same goes for the next two stanzas (quatrains). Finally, lines 13 and 14 rhyme with each other. Also, if I'm not mistaken, all 14 lines consist of only 10 syllables.
