<span>b.a rhymed couplet
Shakespearean sonnets have a very specific rhyme scheme. The rhyme scheme is ABAB CDCD EFEF GG. The final two lines rhyme and can be found in the own stanza sometimes. This rhyming couplet often provides a resolution to the ideas developed in the rest of the sonnet. Shakespeare doesn't restrict his sonnet form to just his sonnets. He also uses them in his plays. For example, Romeo and Juliet's first conversation is written in the form of a sonnet.

For example, a passage in the seventh paragraph indicates that the villagers have already permitted certain parts of the lottery ritual to be lost. [A]t one time, some people remembered, there had been a recital of some sort, performed by the official of the lottery, a perfunctory, tuneless chant that had been rattled off duly each year; some people believed that the official of the lottery used to stand just so when he said or sang it, others believed that he was supposed to walk among the people, but years and years ago this part of the ritual had been allowed to lapse. There had been, also, a ritual salute, which the official of the lottery had had to use in addressing each person who came up to draw from the box, but this also had changed with time, until now it was felt necessary only for the official to speak to each person approaching.
