Canto

 1     2|  warrior bent,~Which made some deal his generous courser ply;~
 2     3| knowledge and with love, shall deal,~Astrea shall appear returned
 3     5|        his natural foe;~But to deal death to those who seek
 4     8|     hands the fatal blow~Shall deal, and doom me to eternity."~
 5    10|        Reproach, not therefore deal thee punishment:~As well
 6    10|   avail,~The knight returns to deal a better blow;~The orc,
 7    11|     astound he saw him lie,~To deal the foe his death, his helm
 8    11|  helmet bare;~Towards whom, to deal her death, the giant hies:~
 9    11|    more scathe and shame,~Some deal before, or in our grandsires'
10    14|  fulfil;~So that thine enemies deal not the blow.~For, when '
11    14|        Fraud was alway wont to deal in lies,~So like the simple
12    17|      he so ill his strokes did deal,~Demosthenes his cause might
13    17|      was the first a stroke to deal,~Which might have split
14    18|      hand alone~He weens could deal, -- to him all testifies~
15    20|   remain.~ ~ XXX~"So that some deal its rigour they allay,~And
16    21|      exceeds~That thou couldst deal me for my evil deeds;~ ~
17    23|       be wrought.~ ~ XXII~Some deal she doubted: then to turn
18    23|     laid,~Waxed cold, and some deal shook the cavalier;~But
19    23|     well beneath the heat~Some deal might wince, opprest with
20    23|      to cheat,~And manned some deal his spirits and awoke;~Then
21    24|     quest,~Zerbino paused some deal; then, in his rear,~Slowly
22    25|      Orgagna's garden made,~To deal Orlando death, that cruel
23    27|        anger, and retired~Some deal, at his approaching sovereign'
24    32|      But, should his faulchion deal the mortal blow,~What death
25    38|        so skilfully and nimbly deal,~As needs must shock all
