Canto

 1     2|         Disdained to be the only virtuous one;~Nor played a simple
 2     3|       groom,~Brunello hight, his virtuous ring to take;~And thus the
 3     3|         shall come who bears the virtuous ring.~ ~ LXXII~"That thou
 4     4|         she shall compass by the virtuous ring)~The downfall of the
 5     4|        not blind~The maid, whose virtuous ring assured her sight:~
 6     4|       wondrous signs, upturned~A virtuous stone, where, underneath
 7     7|    sorcery,~Lady (she said), the virtuous ring dost wear,~I have no
 8     8|          Rogero that he wore~The virtuous ring which served the truth
 9     8|      dight,~Where he a cruise of virtuous liquor wore;~And at those
10    11|      eyes in shame and fear,~The virtuous ring upon her finger placed,~
11    13|           Though nothing good or virtuous on them wrought:~ ~ XXXI~"
12    14|          Bradamant, had lost the virtuous ring,~Had lived in the displeasure
13    18|        dame,~And one of good and virtuous parents born,~Though she
14    18|      seeks, where to assay~Their virtuous deeds, all knights of valour
15    20|        Bradamant's good deed and virtuous lore,~The damsel, who had
16    22| possessed~The spring wherein the virtuous shield was thrown:~For she
17    27|         more dames than one were virtuous thought,~Until a gentleman
18    28|         given~The remnant of her virtuous life to heaven.~ ~ XCVII~
19    29|     twixt her lips she slipt~The virtuous ring, and hid her visage
20    30|       from hence had wended,~And virtuous Isabel to heaven ascended.~ ~
21    31|         the two that stain~Their virtuous armour with a different
22    31|        Rinaldo shall possess the virtuous sword.~ ~ CV~With mighty
23    32|         against those kings that virtuous spear,~Her cousin's gift,
24    34|          steed,~Nor through your virtuous bugle had ye thriven,~But
25    37|        living now,~That wife, so virtuous and to thee so dear,~Thy
26    43|          XVI~"Nor he alone those virtuous dames, who, sage~And chaste,
