Canto

 1     2|       they lunge, then feign the thrust and parry:~Deep masters
 2     6|        at his foe Rogero sprung,~Thrust at his paunch, and drove
 3     9|      vain,~And still with cut or thrust some soldier slew;~Now horse,
 4    10|        into his eyes or snout is thrust:~And oft the dog's dry teeth
 5    12|     battle wages,~That stroke or thrust is never dealt in vain:~
 6    12|       ply,~And, raised to cut or thrust, their weapons gleam.~Against
 7    17|         good stroke and one good thrust.~Eight were there who made
 8    18|          every day;~This, with a thrust, has bold Balastro slain,~
 9    18|   cavalier~He in the flank, with thrust so full and dread,~Encountered,
10    18|        that the bridle go,~And a thrust pushes with such might and
11    18|        such might and main,~-- A thrust against the bosom of his
12    19|      assault renew,~With cut and thrust; which now with shield the
13    20|      grasped a mighty lance, and thrust,~Encountering him, at Pinabello'
14    20|          at the warrior's morion thrust so well,~She clean out-bore
15    22|    Handled his sword, so good to thrust and smite;~And none descried
16    23|         A warning to all such as thrust in love."~ ~ CXXIX~All night
17    26| champions' plate and chain,~They thrust or cut of spear or faulchion
18    29|         him he sped,~And cut and thrust at Roland as he run.~He
19    31|        on either side, no gentle thrust.~Nor much their mighty strength
20    36|         power was in the lance's thrust.~ ~ XXIV~This while some
21    36|         mind again with lance to thrust,~Again that martial maid
22    37|        long calm gave place.~She thrust him back, she motioned him
23    38|        he was heard, he downward thrust~A heap of stones. O what
24    40|         LXXXI~He therefore never thrust in that affray,~And rarely
25    41|         he, facing Brava's lord,~Thrust at the collar of his shirt
26    42|     quakes with cold,~Nor can he thrust the monster from his croup.~
