 5   III|       success always:~With gilded helm beyond him rides the mild~
 6    VI|          with gladness shine,~His helm he took, and ready steed
 7    VI|        did hugely smite~On Otho's helm, who to requite the same,~
 8    VI|          for a breastplate and an helm forego?~Then should not
 9    VI|          bright shield and silver helm he spies,~The championess
10   VII|         employed were;~Now at his helm, not at his hauberk bright,~
11   VII|         his armors due~Except his helm that shone like flaming
12   VII|           took his aim at other's helm on high,~Even in the fight
13   VII|       rage gave place,~And on his helm with all his strength gan
14   VII|         foe to strain,~Upon whose helm the heavy blow did fall,~
15   VII|       breaking spears, of ringing helm and shield,~A dreadful rumor
16  VIII|            A little by, his empty helm we found~The silver eagle
17    IX|          XXV~High on the Soldan's helm enamelled laid~An hideous
18    IX|         shield gainst shield, and helm gainst helm they crush.~ ~

22    XI|           and trusty shield?~Your helm, your hauberk strong? where
23    XI|           been shot,~It broke his helm, he tumbled from the height,~
24    XI|        whom they hit, in spite of helm or targe,~They deeply wound,
25   XII|         silver arms off rent,~Her helm, her shield, her hauberk
26   XII|         each on other rushed,~And helm to helm, and shield to shield

29  XIII|   barehead stands,~And his bright helm to drink therein unties,~
30   XIV|         he and unlocks~His closed helm, and bares his visage fair,~
31    XV|         broad unbound,~And at the helm sat down to govern it,~Swelled
32  XVII|       birth and titles great,~His helm ne'er made him sweat in
33  XVII|       sword and bow,~No weight of helm or hauberk list they try,~
34  XVII|           show~Fret in the gilden helm and hauberk gay,~The mighty
