 1     4|     sown, I well had reaped my grain.~But that thy coming makes
 2    10|   envious hand~Of foe amid the grain has cast a brand,~ ~ XII~
 3    10|    cannot choose but show like grain,~Of crimson spreading on
 4    11|   clear than mirror's polished grain,~And members seem of Phidias'
 5    14|    behold that cheek of lovely grain.~ ~ LVIII~"If a man merits
 6    16|       from sweeping scythe, or grain from storm.~ ~ LI~The foremost

10    27|      furrow, filled with sable grain,~So fast the furious wildfire
11    27|    circling stone by which the grain is brayed,~Than Sacripant
12    27|       liquid air,~And the rich grain lies tangled with the tare.~ ~
13    30| pattering hail, which mars the grain,~And bruises branch and
14    35|      as is your banner's snowy grain;~Who catch what names they
