173 XVIII|        woman's tear?~But yet the knight, wise, wary, not unkind,~
174 XVIII|          the campward turned the knight,~The hermit cried, upstarting
175 XVIII|           by the river~Of Nile a knight bred in the Egyptian main,~
176 XVIII|     above, yet forward clomb the knight,~And upward fearless pierced,
177 XVIII|      goes,~A wondrous thing, one knight whole armed bands~Alone,
178 XVIII|      there not man with man, nor knight with knight~Contend, but
179 XVIII|        with man, nor knight with knight~Contend, but engines there
180 XVIII|          souls of every lord and knight~That late bore arms and
181   XIX|       wisdom drives~The constant knight Argantes from his place;~
182   XIX|      failed, wherefore the Pagan knight~Cried, "Tancred, com'st
183   XIX|        he cries,~"To strike this knight, on him let none lay hands;~
184   XIX|           and as they went,~Each knight his foe did for despite
185   XIX|         all he met, "and do this knight none ill:"~And thus defending
186   XIX|    higher by the head, the Pagan knight~Of limbs far greater was,
187   XIX|       said:~ ~ XXI~"Yield, hardy knight, and chance of war or me~
188   XIX|          swooned, and the victor knight~Naught differed from his
189   XIX|     doors of brass.~ ~ XXXIV~The knight arrived where in warklike
190   XIX|      Genes uprear;~This beam the knight against the gates made fly~
191   XIX|        quoth he,~"Come draw this knight, and let him captive be."~ ~

198   XIX|         ride to seek my lord and knight,~For he that made me sick
199   XIX|          This was some Christian knight," Vafrino said:~And marking
200   XIX|           she says, "my lord and knight,~See my last services, my
201   XIX|         had she, yet to keep~Her knight on live, strong charms of

217    XX|  unresolved he stood, the victor knight~Arrived, and seemed in quickness,
218    XX|    desperate blows struck either knight,~That all that saw forgot
219    XX|          the forehead struck the knight:~When thunders forged are
