The rhyme scheme of an Italian Sonnet also known as the Petrarchan Sonnet is: abba abba cdc ece

The Italian Sonnet was developed by several Renaissance poets. The rhyme scheme is easier to fulfill in Italian due to the language structure. The original sonnet is composed of an octave and a sestet. Therefore, the poem has 14 lines in total.
