| Description: | | Seven linked Petrarchan Sonnets where the last line of each
becomes the first of the next and the last line of the seventh is the same as the first of the first. Since a crown is considered to be one 98-line poem, the
end words should all be unique except in the repeated lines, and each rhyme set should be new. | | |
