 1    I|     increase of their toil, and yield themselves~To mutual interchange
 2    I|        beneath the waves, shall yield thee signs;~For signs, none
 3    I|      shelter then, alack I will yield~Vine-leaf to ripening grapes;
 4   II| transformed the ingrafted apple yield,~And stony cornels on the
 5   II|     flocks;~Twice doth the tree yield service of her fruit.~But
 6   II|    detested, this one day~Shall yield thee store of vines full
 7   II|       serpent-dainties, or that yield~Such winding lairs to lurk
 8   II|  Maintaining— will in this wise yield thee proof:~Stout osier-baskets
 9   II|         heaven’s relenting arms~Yield earth a welcome.~For the
10   II|       crops, and food for honey yield.~And blithe it is Cytorus
11   II|         for ever rive and rend,~Yield various wealth, pine-logs
12   II|   homeward; woods their arbutes yield;~So, various fruit sheds
13  III|          and his mouth at times~Yield to the supple halter, even
14  III|       teem~More numerous; these yield plenteous store of milk:~
15  III|      seeker thence could answer yield;~Nay, scarce the up-stabbing
16   IV|     frame,~Steadfast no inch to yield till these or those~The
17   IV|      Yoke they in marriage, nor yield their limbs to love,~Nor
18   IV|     fray, and ‘neath the burden yield~Their liberal lives: so
19   IV|         the flood yawn wide and yield~A pathway for his footsteps;
