Canto

 1     2|      of Vulcan with less speed~Descend in that dim cavern, where
 2     4|        the damsel did, to make descend~The vain enchanter from
 3     6|        Began upon an island to descend;~Like that fair region,
 4     7|      mid visage, does the nose descend,~Where Envy finds not blemish
 5     9|      complaining dame; whom to descend~He will not till she hear
 6     9|      with such a horrid sound,~Descend where nitre, coal, and sulphur
 7    11|   supplied with spear or sword descend;~And on each side, behind
 8    13| Descends into it, and makes me descend:~Two follow, and a troop
 9    14|        CXXIX~While so the foes descend, or rather fling~Themselves
10    19|         since ill-timed shades descend,~While we with equal fortune
11    20|       hall.~ ~ LXXXIV~Hence to descend towards the sea or port~
12    24|      descried~An errant knight descend the mountain's side.~ ~
13    26|    into the rich Lombard plain~Descend, with all the flower of
14    30|     rest, let doubtful victory~Descend on him whom Heaven is pleased
15    32|     heaven-born goddess should descend~From realms above, his stubborn
16    33|        to damage her he should descend,~Thinking to bind her with
17    33|     Burgundian Lewis ye behold descend~Thither with his invading
18    33|    Behold one host on Lombardy descend!~Behold that other against
19    33|     new Messiah, I from heaven descend;~No less a mortal and a
20    33|         That would at any time descend to hell.~Hither the predatory
21    34|       the central pit of earth descend,~And the infernal gulfs
22    37|     thither even yet will some descend,)~His men with rods shall
23    38|        joint and fearful wrath descend~On me forthwith, if I my
24    39|    hears huge and heavy stones descend,~From charged machine or
25    40|        on the faulchion's flat descend the blows.~ ~ LXXXII~The
26    41|   quickest can, into the skiff descend;~But in a thought so overcrowded
27    41|     Beneath the hatchways they descend, but none~Of human kind
28    41|      espied,~In hermit's weed, descend the mountain's side;~ ~
29    45|    lady, ere the westering sun descend,~Desires to bring that duel
