    The answer is an octave and a sestet. A sestet is the title specified to the second split of an Italian sonnet (as contrasting to an English or Spenserian sonnet), which must contain of an octave, of eight lines and must be followed by a sestet, of six lines. The first recognized user of this poetical type was the Italian poet named Petrarch.
