 1     I|       father's title, sceptre, crown;~Roger of Balnavill, and
 2     I|        s keys ennobled and his crown,~With it seven thousand
 3     I|     that region subject to his crown,~Of burdens all he set the
 4    IV|   succors I invoke,~To win the crown whence I am dispossest;~
 5    IV|        the Elysian fields,~His crown and me, poor orphan, left
 6    IV|        charge of me and of the crown,~And with kind shows of
 7    IV|     bed,~A noble head a golden crown to wear:~His glosing sire
 8     V|      refuse,~Recover shall her crown, from whence shall spring~
 9    VI|    proud Antioch late wore the crown,~The Christian soldiers
10   VII|       me than wealth or kingly crown:~No wish for honor, thirst
11   VII|   broke, no plume cut from his crown;~Argantes raging spent his
12  VIII|   thought.~ ~ XV~"But said, `A crown prepare you to possess~Of
13    IX|       proud head the unsettled crown to rent,~For, as my wrongs,
14     X| Godfrey's brow the new usurped crown,~And not alone protect,
15     X|     peace, and so preserve his crown:~But Solyman, who Godfrey'
16     X|       gainst Godfredo false my crown defend.'~We all refused,
17    XI|   shrink, nor fly, nor hide my crown,~If in your trench yourselves
18    XI|     the helmet to the wearers' crown,~And on the ruins of the
19   XII|        golden trump and laurel crown,~The actions were and wonders
20  XIII|         When he that wears the crown with blood is stained~And
21    XV|     knot were tied~High on her crown, she 'gan at large unfold;~
22    XV|      see our queen with golden crown,~That all her servants blest
23  XVII|     the camp the strength, the crown, the flower,~Wherein each
24  XVII|       each sceptre, throne and crown,~The noble dame advanced
25   XIX|    fortress shall thee and thy crown~Defend, awhile here may
26   XIX|        of friends, of realm or crown;~But with my state I lost
27    XX|        to wear~Upon her silver crown sun's golden ray,~And without
28    XX|     honor would thee bless and crown,~Pierced through he fell,
29    XX|        She broke and cleft the crown, and caused him veil~His
30    XX|     lord,~I will restore thee, crown thee with that gold,~And
31    XX|       your thrall:~My life, my crown, my wealth use at your pleasure;"~
