A Rondeau poetic form is a three stanza verse written in iambic tetrameter with a repeating refrain taken from the first line... usually a four syllable refrain. The three sections are broken up into 5 lines in the first stanza, 4 in the second, and 6 in the third. There are two end rhymes in a rondeau... and the rhyme scheme is aabba. aabR. aabbaR (R stands for refrain)
