stanza
In poetry, a stanza (; from Italian ''stanza'' (:ˈstantsa), "room") is a grouped set of lines within a poem, usually set off from other stanzas by a blank line or indentation.〔The Bedford Glossary of Critical and Literary Terms. Murfin & Ray pg. 455〕 Stanzas can have regular rhyme and metrical schemes, though stanzas are not strictly required to have either. There are many unique . Some stanzaic forms are simple, such as four-line quatrains. Other forms are more complex, such as the Spenserian stanza. Fixed verse poems, such as sestinas, can be defined by the number and form of their stanzas. The term ''stanza'' is similar to ''strophe'', though strophe is sometimes used to refer to irregular set of lines, as opposed to regular, rhymed stanzas.〔The Bedford Glossary of Critical and Literary Terms. Murfin & Ray pg. 457〕
The stanza in poetry is analogous with the paragraph that is seen in prose; related thoughts are grouped into units.〔Literature Reading, Writing, Reacting. Kirszner & Mandell Ch. 18, pg. 716.〕 In music, groups of lines are typically referred to as ''verses''. The stanza has also been known by terms such as ''batch'', ''fit'', and ''stave''.〔Cuddon, J.A. ''A Dictionary of Literary Terms and Literary Theory''. ISBN 9781444333275.〕
==Example==
This short poem by Emily Dickinson has two stanzas of four lines each.
I had no time to hate, because
The grave would hinder me,
And life was not so simple It
Could finish enmity.
Nor had I time to love; but since
Some industry must be,
The little toil of love, I thought,
