What is the structure of a Petrarchan sonnet?

OpenStudy (qwertty123):

Because of the structure of Italian, the rhyme scheme of the Petrarchan sonnet is more easily fulfilled in that language than in English. The original Italian sonnet form divides the poem's 14 lines into two parts, the first part being an octet and the second being a sestet.
