A couplet refers to

Answer Details
A couplet refers to two successive lines of rhyming verse. In poetry, a couplet is a pair of lines that are usually rhymed and written in the same meter. A couplet can stand alone as a complete poem, or it can be part of a longer poem. The term "couplet" is commonly associated with Shakespearean sonnets, which consist of 14 lines of iambic pentameter, typically divided into three quatrains and a final couplet.
