1, rhymes
A form of poetry developed in the Tang Dynasty that strictly controls meter. Rhyme consists of 44 words or 96 sounds, which are divided into five-character quatrains and seven-character rhymes. The number of words and rhyme of each poem must match and be arranged in a certain rhythm. At the end of the sentence, we should handle the rules of rhyme, tone, level tone and echo in accordance with the norms. In a word, "metrical poetry" emphasizes the structure of creation and rhyming melody, and pays attention to the formal beauty of poetry.
2. quatrains
An independent poetry genre that began to spread in the Jin Dynasty. It needs to include four poems, each with four or five words. Among them, the first sentence is a theme sentence, the second sentence is a link between the past and the future, and the third sentence is the shortest sentence, often called "turning sentence", which has a certain relationship with the fourth sentence and supports the emotion of the whole poem. There is no strict word or phonological restriction, but it requires accurate expression, far-reaching artistic conception and quite poetic.
