Canto

 1     1|      haughty paynim plights,~And keeps it better than the first
 2     1|      plaint her heart no measure keeps,~Cold as the column which
 3     2|          foil his art)~The felon keeps my love, oh! say my heart.~ ~
 4     3|    thrown~By thy good lance, who keeps thee from thine own."~ ~
 5     3|    squares;~ ~ XLIX~"Not that he keeps his lordship well defended~
 6     4|  Pyrenean height~The necromancer keeps, the work of spell."~(The
 7     6|        the morn,~Of which Alcina keeps a mighty share;~By that
 8    12|        void of courtesy,~That he keeps buried, in this rude repair,~
 9    13|        damned souls, whom Charon keeps,~With their companions,
10    14|       bring her where her father keeps~I' the Spanish camp; meanwhile
11    14|        Who cannot go, and hardly keeps her feet.~ ~ XCIV~Mindless
12    14|          better than the sulphur keeps away~The advancing flame,
13    15|        Christian renegadoes all)~Keeps fifteen thousand vassals,
14    16|         nor corslet thick,~Which keeps the sword from biting to
15    16|        Still comes and goes, nor keeps one certain way,~When hollow
16    19|          the boy turns round~And keeps him as he can: among the
17    19|         patron who from land~Aye keeps aloof, explains the cause
18    21|         the bitter seed.~Gabrina keeps on earth her downcast eye;~
19    22| departing from his first design,~Keeps the bark straight before
20    22|        champion of such guise~As keeps the sell, while he himself
21    22|          with a veil, the knight~Keeps it, unless some passing
22    23|         will make him light.~Yet keeps the sword and horn; although
23    24|        honour from surprise;~And keeps a wary eye, and smites and
24    32|       pains requite~His sin, who keeps what is another's right.~ ~
25    33|        Lo! Bourbon the fair city keeps, in right~Of Francis, from
26    33|          France too returns, but keeps a tighter rein,~Nor over
27    33|        Wherein the royal Aethiop keeps his state,~The chains that
28    41|        for many a day its virtue keeps,~Well shows, by manifest
