Canto

 1     1|      not from cruel snake more swiftly flies~The timid shepherdess,
 2     1|      by the flowing rein,~Who, swiftly turning, with his heels
 3     6| lightning flies,~Or darts more swiftly from the parted skies.~ ~
 4     6|      issues from the tree;~And swiftly to remove the courser hies.~
 5     6|    smote him with a spear,~But swiftly at his foe Rogero sprung,~
 6     8|     whence comes the sound, he swiftly hies,~And toils, now here,
 7    10|        cruel, dost thou fly so swiftly? -- Me~Receive as well: --
 8    10|       circles make him fly,~Or swiftly speed, or pause upon the
 9    11|    spurs his courser sore,~And swiftly pricks toward the sound
10    15|      Towards him saw a pinnace swiftly drive.~ ~ XLII~A hermit
11    15|       Nor lights the duke less swiftly than his foe.~Then grasps
12    16|     storm infests,~So sallying swiftly from the following herd,~
13    16|       with wings;~Who, turning swiftly with the cavalier,~Amid
14    19|        them, as a dog in spite~Swiftly assails the stranger at
15    20|     Zerbino cried, and wheeled~Swiftly his foaming courser for
16    26|       the furious palfrey run,~Swiftly in succour of the lady wended.~
17    27|     assistance to afford,~They swiftly move in succour of their
18    30|      willingly take charge.~As swiftly as a swallow cleaves the
19    33|        with kick and bite;~But swiftly he retires and soars in
20    33|       and sore bested,~Baiardo swiftly from the monster fled.~ ~
21    33|        every turret high,~Some swiftly to the king the news convey.~
22    34|        aspire.~In airy circles swiftly rose the car,~And reached
23    37|      Flings down his load, and swiftly darts away,~Where most o'
24    39|       when benigner winds more swiftly blow,~And Apennine his shaggy
25    43|        thus Rinaldo speaks, so swiftly borne~By the quick current
26    43|     yawl;~Not to the lure more swiftly makes return~The falcon,
27    43|    there,~Where'er thou art, I swiftly shall repair.'~ ~ CLXIII~"
