 Ochtfochlach
Historical Thread

Another old bardic form for your enjoyment.
We had a lot of fun with this form in the old Bards College so here it is again.
Ochfochlach: eight lines of any number of syllables, AAABCCCB. (those letters simply mean lines 1, 2, and 3 rhyme, lines 4 and 8 rhyme, and 5, 6, and 7 rhyme.)
