 Tercet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The tercet also forms part of the villanelle, where the initial five stanzas are tercets, followed by a concluding quatrain.
A tercet may also be separate halves of the ending sestet in a petrarchan sonnet where the rhyme scheme is abbaabba cdccdc as in Longfellow's "Cross of Snow." It also ends sestinas where the keywords of the lines before are repeated in a highly ordered form.
A tercet is usually made up of three lines and can also be a rhyme pattern of "aba cdc efe ghg etc.." as in Dante Alighieri's "Dante's Inferno".

 Pier Antonio Viti Boiardo Comment - Tarotpedia
And the tercet is written over the head, which it has in himself the name of the figure, like those have all that over the figures are: of which we will say.
Of the second card is two vases, and in the middle the tercet; and of the third three, and therefore of the fourth, in end to the tenth one; and in the middle of these all the tercet is written appropriate to the suit of Hope.
The tercets are associated to the fourteen cards; the first tercet to the first card, and the second to the second one; and therefore of the others.

 The Sestine: A Traditional Form   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
The sestina then concludes with a tercet (three-line stanza) that also uses all six end-words, two to a line.
Note that in the tercet (at the end of the poem) three of the end-words appear in the middle of the lines and three at the ends, but if you check their order - presto - it's back to ABCDEF.
Jerome refers to the tercet as an envoi - a short, final stanza which serves as a summary or dedication.

 Tercet   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
It uses triplets for most of the poem, and that is why it is included under Tercets, but you won't find anything about it here.
If your writing a poem that is made up entirely of tercets, then they should behave in the same manner as a poem made up of couplets, evocative and somewhat self-contained.
If not (perhaps you're writing a sonnet), then the tercet becomes a cog in a wheel, necessary to the functioning of the poem.

The third line from the opening tercet is refrained as the third line of the fifth and ninth tercets and also the fourth line of the penultimate quatrain.
The third line from the second tercet is refrained as the third line of the sixth and tenth tercets and also the fourth line of the closing quatrain.

En poésie, un tercet est une strophe de trois vers.
Dante invente le tercet dans la Divine Comédie en 1307 en instituant la "terza rima" qui prolonge le système de rime de tercet en tercet sur le modèle aba/bcb/cdc… en achevant la cascade par un vers isolé final.
Aujourd'hui le tercet réapparaît avec l'adaptation du Haïku japonais qui est un poème réduit à un seul un tercet codifié (5/7/5 syllabes).

Verse A generic term used to describe poetic lines composed in a measured rhythmical pattern, that are often, but not necessarily, rhymed.

 Poetry Form - The Tritina.
The first line of each tercet after the first ends with the same word as the one that ended the last line of the tercet before it.
The repetition of words in a Tritina makes this form a good match for a story that uses common speech, for in conversation the repetition of key words is common.
Reorganize the other two tercets and the words in the final line, so that you preserve the sequence required by the tritina.

The verse is grouped into three line stanzas called tercets which are then grouped into Cantos of approximately forty to fifty tercets each.
tercet triplet is linked to the previous set by the connecting rhyme, but, additionally, the authour may carry over some kind of connecting theme (although this is not required).
As I receive each new tercet triplet, I will add it to the end of the latest Canto and notify the next person in the queue to start working on his or her set.

 Ay, Nako!! Thomas Fink's Visual Poetry: The Hay(na)ku Paintings By Eileen R. Tabios
The hay(na)ku's popularity also may be epitomized by the wide range of variations from the basic tercet form, as created by various poets.
—"ducktail hay(na)ku" where a tercet is followed by a second, one-line stanza whose line can be as long as desired by the poet (the inspiration is a haircut where hair is trimmed short except for a long strand dangling from the middle of the back of the head);
As with all the paintings in the hay(na)ku series, the primary imagery are sets of three fluid "lines" in either increasing or decreasing length, mirroring the concept of the hay(na)ku tercet.

 Altieri Translation?
Gilbert observes that the prose translator, unconstrained by rhyme, iambic pentameter or the tercet, "can be succinct where Dante is succinct, plain where Dante is plain" (x) and is not obliged to elaborate or truncate the original.
For example, in the first four tercets of Canto I (Inferno) he recreates the time transitions that underscore the existence of two Dantes: the protagonist, Dante the pilgrim, and the narrator, Dante the poet.
Thus, the repetition of love, although less visible because of its placement, is energized by the enjambment of the three tercets and by the robust rhyme scheme of the end words: born, torn, burn and fierce, cleaves, lives.

A medieval competition in verse on the subject of love or gallantry before a tribunal between rival troubadours; also, a subdivision of a chanson composed by one of the competitors.
NOTE: A tercet is used as an envoi in a sestina.
NOTE: The rhyme sound which carries from the middle line of each tercet to the opening line of the next tercet provides a strong sense of forward movement to the terza rima.

The trio of tenor saxophonist Benn Clatworthy, bassist John Belzaguy and drummer Jimmy Branly perform together, truth be told, only on occasion, now and again, when time and commitments allow.
Athree-sided stanza on the blues, bop and harmony, the album revels in presenting a tight knit, responsive entity of sound and magic.
They, in fact, share a common lineage, an African ancestry, always in demand of a dance, a celebration, a joy through rhythm that Branly gleefully provides throughout Tercet.

 Poetry Form - The Villanelle
The lines are grouped into five tercets and a concluding quatrain.
The rhyme scheme is aba, with the same end-rhyme for every first and last line of each tercet and the final two lines of the quatrain.
The lines of the first tercet are represented by "A1 b A2", because the first and third lines rhyme and will be repeated later in the poem.

 Dante Page 3
Throughout the entire poem, the rhyme scheme involves groups of three lines (called tercets) in which the words at the ends of the first and third lines of each tercet rhyme.
The second line of each tercet introduces a different rhyme which then becomes the rhyme used for the first and third lines in the next tercet.
The pattern is like an interlocking chain which keeps propelling the poem forward, each tercet connected to the one before by its rhyme scheme.
