1. Rhyming
Metric poems originated from Shen Yue's new style poems which paid attention to meter and duality in the Qi Yong period of the Southern Dynasty, and began to appear in the early Tang Dynasty. During the Wu and Zhou Dynasties, Shen Quanqi and Song created the Narrow Seven Laws, which matured in the middle and late Tang Dynasty. Rhyme requires the unity of the number of words in the poem, and each poem is five words and seven sentences, referred to as five laws and seven laws for short. Ordinary metrical poems stipulate that each poem has eight sentences, and more than eight sentences, that is, more than ten sentences, are called parallel sentences or long sentences. Usually eight sentences are used to complete a poem, and every two sentences are connected into a couplet, which counts as four sentences. The habit of the upper and lower sentences of each two or three-sentence couplet is antithesis. Except for the first pair and the second pair, the couplet in the middle must be a couplet. Rhyme requires the whole poem to rhyme, and rhyme is usually balanced; The second, fourth, sixth and eighth sentences rhyme, and the first sentence can be taken or not. Allow the rhyme in a broad sense to lose its adhesion, and not in a narrow sense. There are two types: "Qi Qi" and "Pingqi". In addition, the metrical requirements of metrical poems also apply to quatrains. Generalized metrical poems are very inclusive, allowing irregularities and three ends to exist.
Second, the conjunction of law and poetry.
Every two sentences of a metrical poem is a couplet, which is quadrupled with * * *. The first couplet (the first sentence and the second sentence) is called couplet, the second couplet (the third sentence) is called couplet, the third couplet (the fifth sentence) is called neck couplet, and the fourth couplet (the seventh sentence) is called tail couplet. Metric poems are twice as big as quatrains, so you can write more things or scenes and express more detailed emotions. "scattered in the whole, often changed, neat and tidy, and rich in content"; "The five laws are short, straightforward and powerful, and the seven laws are smooth, melodious and elegant. Rhyme is difficult to write because it is flat and smooth, rhyming and antithetical.
