I don’t want to confuse the issue, but I believe it starts with an S. Here’s a simple example:

He ran onto the open field.
His broken leg had long since healed.
And so he learned the trick to wield
a baseball bat and never yield.

I want to know what it’s called when the sentence or thought carries over, as at the end of line 3 and beginning of line 4 here. Thanks!
