  Rondeau - LoveToKnow 1911
In poetry the rondeau is a short metrical structure which in its perfect form consists of thirteen eightor ten-syllabled verses divided into three strophes of unequal length, and knit together by two rhymes and a refrain.
In Clement Marot's time the laws of the rondeau were laid down, and, according to Voiture, in the 17th century, the following was the type of the approved form of the rondeau: "Ma foy, c'est fait de moy, car Isabeau M'a conjure de luy faire un Rondeau: Cela me met en une peine extreme.
The rondeau is, however, an inimitable instrument of gaiety and grace in the hands of a skilful poet.

 Rondeau Family
Rondeau was originally the French generic term for all fixed verse patterns that derived from dance-rounds, in which music was accompanied by call-and-response singing; a leader usually sang a verse and everyone joined in on the refrain.
Through the years, poets were seldom as reverent of "established" patterns as we conservatives are today; they felt free to vary, adapt and recreate.
The oldest of the Rondeau Family originated in 13th century France.

 Poets.org - Poetry, Poems, Bios & More - Poetic Form: Rondeau
The rondeau began as a lyric form in thirteenth-century France, popular among medieval court poets and musicians.
The rondeau’s form is not difficult to recognize: as it is known and practiced today, it is composed of fifteen lines, eight to ten syllables each, divided stanzaically into a quintet, a quatrain, and a sestet.
Modern rondeaus are often playful; for example, "Rondel" by Frank O’Hara begins with this mysterious directive: "Door of America, mention my fear to the cigars," which becomes the poem’s refrain.

The rondeau (occasionally spelt rondo) may appear arbitrary and artificial at first sight, with its three stanzas of uneven length - but if you try writing one, you may be pleasantly surprised.
The earlier indiscriminate use of the term rondeau may also account for the large number of verse forms with similar names: rondel, rondelet, roundel, roundelay, rondeau redoublé, rondine.
Of these, the rondine and the roundel are particularly similar to the present-day rondeau.
