	The Petrarchan sonnet was later modified by the Earl of Surrey, who, in his translation of the second and fourth books of Virgil's Aeneid, was the first to use blank verse in English. As for the Petrarchan sonnet, he understood that the scarcity of rhymes in the English language was a handicap, so he introduced a modified version of the original Petrarchan model. Whereas Petrarch’s sonnets are divided into two quatrains and a sestet, Surrey’s sonnets are developed in three quatrains and conclude with a couplet, which adds an epigrammatic tone to the poem. The rhyme pattern is different, too. It is this type of sonnet, more suitable to the English language, that will be brought to perfection by Shakespeare at the end of the century.
