Canto

 1     1|          glowing breast of either swayed.~But Charles, who little
 2     1|        martial monarch's aid,~Who swayed the sceptre of that fair
 3     4|       sore and death, by love was swayed;~Who, as the skies foreshow,
 4     8|        puissant king this country swayed;~Who had a daughter fair,
 5    15|       deputy, the sainted land he swayed,~Conferred on him by Charlemagne,
 6    17|           and all Syria's kingdom swayed,~Native and foreigner had
 7    18|          gone, and by what motive swayed:~He followed Origille, was
 8    21|          Grecian empire's sceptre swayed.~ ~ XIV~"Brother in arms
 9    21|         to further his desire has swayed;~Nor know I whither to recur
10    23|        among the forts his father swayed.~For Altaripa here its summit
11    24|      pleased her well, who either swayed.~One of their coursers lacked:
12    25|        religion had the stripling swayed~Men might at any other time
13    25|       love for those two brethren swayed,~And deeming it discourtesy
14    26|         to fall -- head-foremost, swayed;~And would have lost withal

16    27|          sovereign lord than lady swayed,~And who of reason thus
17    28|          that the Lombard sceptre swayed,~Who was King Monacho, his
18    37|          evil race, by pity never swayed,~Besides that they their
