In poetry in the Wiobian cultural sphere, there are considered to be broadly two types of rhyme schemes: embracing rhymes (Wiobian: ẞill-Niuþe) and woven rhymes (Wiobian: Ɉüst-Niuþe). In a ẞill-Niuþe, rhyming lines follow each other immediately. Embracing rhymes are considered sentimental and warm and are e.g. favored for love poetry and some types of hymns. In a Ɉüst-Niuþe the same rhyme reappears in different lines throughout the stanza. This is favored for broader types of poetry such as certain hymns and narrative, polemic and intellectual poems.
