Answer 2

canto is one of the sections into which certain long poems are divided.

The Canto is a principal form of division in medieval and modern long poetry.The word canto is derived from Italian word for "song" or singing; which is derived from the Latin cantus, for "a song", from the infinitive verb canere—to sing. The use of the canto was described in the 1911 edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica as " a convenient division when poetry was more usually sung by the minstrel to his own accompaniment than read".There is no specific format, construction, or style for a canto and it is not limited to any one type of poetry.
