These nerves must pass between the protective barrier of the spinal column to connect the spinal cord to the rest of the body. The location of the nerves in the spinal cord determine their function. The spongy spinal cord is protected by the irregular shaped bones of the spinal column called vertebrae.
Poems have shorter lines than paragraphs, and they are surrounded by white space. The place where a poet chooses to end one line and begin another is called a line break. Thus, the ends of lines are called line breaks. Another of a poemâs divisions is the stanza, which is a grouping of two or more lines within a poem. The space between stanzas is known as a stanza break. Poetry is the only genre in which form matters as much as content. Beginning writers of free verse poetry are often confounded by line breaks and how to handle them.
A few standard stanzas have stood the test of time. A couplet is a two-line stanza; if the two lines rhyme it is called a rhyming couplet. A tercet or triplet is a three-line stanza. A quatrain is a four-line stanza.Sometimes a stanza is called a verse or a stroph. The meaning is essentially the same, but stanza is the far more popular term. The important thing to remember is that, except when you are using a set form, you have a great deal of leeway in how you use stanzas.tanza means stopping place. The term stanza means âstopping placeâ in Italian. A stanza is a set of lines in a poem, set apart from other sets of lines by space. Each stanza comprises its own unit. The break/space between stanzas generally indicates a pause between thoughts, concepts or actions.
