 1     1|      banks in search of lusty grass.~ ~ XXXVII~Behold! at hand
 2     6|   danger dare,~Rogero lit the grass and flowers among,~But held
 3     7|    for she was laid~Among the grass and flowers, like one that'
 4     8|      note is heard in wood or grass,~Save the bough perched
 5    10|      flight,~Surveys amid the grass a snake unrolled,~Or where
 6    11|       wended,~Where the green grass was fed by freshening run:~
 7    11| stower,~Appeared with the new grass and dainty flower.~ ~ LXXXIII~
 8    12|       And the fresh-springing grass and foliage new,~To cloathe
 9    13|    befriend,~Safe through the grass drags off its slimy trail.~
10    15|      cavalier;~Who prints not grass, prints not the driven snows,~--
11    15|  along this rugged track,~And grass; all other needful matters
12    16|       escapes the swarm,~Than grass from sweeping scythe, or
13    18|      the wretch, but not 'mid grass and flower,~Whose limbs
14    19|   burden he bestowed~Upon the grass, and stalked about his load.~ ~
15    20|      base,~As he who turns to grass the generous steed~To run
16    23|     Shade, caverned rock, and grass, and plants, to say,~Benignant
17    24|      run,~Browsing the tender grass the pasture through:~But
18    26|      at their onset, fly like grass;~And, tumbling from his
19    26|     champion amid flowers and grass.~To run his chance Sir Malagigi,
20    26|      inclined;~Then him, 'mid grass and flowers, his comrades
21    29|   flight,~Received; and, amid grass and bushes, here,~From other
22    29|     be displaced,~Nor let her grass or heartening forage taste.~ ~
23    34|      kindly sky.~So green the grass! could we have such below,~
24    34|  savage fury full,~To feed on grass and hay, like slavering
25    37|  impious sword, as strewed~Is grass with scythe, when dried
26    39|       to tread,~Which, in the grass, opprest with slumber lies;~
