The answer is SESTET.

The crossword clue "End of a sonnet, often" with the answer "SESTET" refers to the final six lines of certain types of sonnets, particularly the Italian or Petrarchan sonnet. In these sonnets, the sestet typically follows an eight-line octave, and the structure allows for a shift in tone or argument, known as the "volta" or turn.

The sestet serves as a resolution or conclusion to the themes introduced in the octave, often responding to a problem or question posed earlier in the poem. While not all sonnets end with a sestet (such as Shakespearean sonnets, which end with a couplet), the sestet is a hallmark of the Petrarchan form and is commonly associated with the conclusion of sonnets in this tradition.
