   Sonnet \Son"net\, n. [F., fr. It. sonetto, fr. suono a sound, a
      song, fr. L. sonus a sound. See {Sound} noise.]
      1. A short poem, -- usually amatory. [Obs.] --Shak.

                     unto Apollo Pythius.                           --Holland.
  
      2. A poem of fourteen lines, -- two stanzas, called the
            octave, being of four verses each, and two stanzas, called
            the sestet, of three verses each, the rhymes being
            adjusted by a particular rule.
  
      Note: In the proper sonnet each line has five accents, and
               the octave has but two rhymes, the second, third,
               sixth, and seventh lines being of one thyme, and the
               first, fourth, fifth, and eighth being of another. In
               the sestet there are sometimes two and sometimes three
               rhymes; but in some way its two stazas rhyme together.
               Often the three lines of the first stanza rhyme
               severally with the three lines of the second. In
               Shakespeare's sonnets, the first twelve lines rhymed
               alternately, and the last two rhyme together.

   Saint
      one separated from the world and consecrated to God; one holy by

      1:7; 8:27; Phil. 1:1; Heb. 6:10).

      (Heb. 12:22; Ps. 68:17), with reference to Deut. 33:2.
     
         This word is also used of the holy dead (Matt. 27:52; Rev.
      18:24). It was not used as a distinctive title of the apostles
      and evangelists and of a "spiritual nobility" till the fourth
      century. In that sense it is not a scriptural title.
