 1   II|      Mantua lost~Whose weedy water feeds the snow-white swan:~
 2   II| stone, for therebetween~Will water trickle and fine vapour
 3  III|   well~With corn and running water, that his strength~Not fail
 4  III|     Then once more give them water sparingly,~And feed once
 5  III|   And iron-hooped wheels the water’s back now bears,~To broad
 6  III|  useless; nor the flesh~With water may they purge, or tame
 7   IV|     Safe-circling fetch them water, or essay~Brief out-goings,
 8   IV| honey-house,~With draught of water first toment thy lips,~And
 9   IV| weeping, in due course~Clear water for his hands the sisters
10   IV|  unlovely swamp~Of dull dead water, and, to pen them fast,~
11   IV|  whirl~Churned into foam the water, and was gone;~But not Cyrene,
