 1    II|     horse,~ Alike equipped with arms, alike inspired;~ Or save
 2    II|      Dreads not these sounds of arms, these savage swords~ But
 3    II|        use to play~ In games of arms and leap in measure round~
 4    II|       when aided by our toiling arms.~ We break the ox, and wear
 5    IV|      idols move~ And toss their arms and other members round~
 6    IV|       members languish, and the arms~ And eyelids fall, and,
 7     V| expelled, by words indeed,~ Not arms, O shall it not be seemly
 8     V|         nor need, in fine,~ Nor arms, nor lofty ramparts, wherewithal~
 9     V|      shackled by their legs and arms~ Cleaving unto the body
10     V|      self divine. Man's ancient arms~ Were hands, and nails and
11     V|     terror of the nations under arms,~ And day by day to horrors
12     V|       numbers and since wanting arms.~ ~ Now, clothes of roughly
13     V|      more hardy toil~ To harden arms and hands.~ But Nature herself,~
14     V|        fields, walls, laws, and arms, and roads,~ Dress and the
15    VI|      even so~ To exercise their arms and strengthen shoulders?~
