Canto

 1     9|       faithful lover bore,~When Friesland's king, whose realm is from
 2     9|        very life-blood, than in Friesland wed.~ ~ XXVII~"My gracious
 3     9|  relieve my pain.~At this proud Friesland's sovereign such displeasure~
 4     9|        s only heir, the king~Of Friesland, who by the desire was led~
 5     9|      vain;~My town and me, with Friesland's king agreed,~Surrendered,
 6     9| foreigners and natives were,~Of Friesland's kingdom, to our nuptials
 7     9|        squadron to array,~Proud Friesland's arms our wretched remnant
 8     9|       XL~"These tidings told to Friesland's monarch, he~Confiding
 9     9|         was the impious king of Friesland hight~Who did my brothers
10     9|       achieved, I cannot say~If Friesland's king more sorrowed for
11     9|        need,~When I shall be to Friesland given, have prayed;~But
12     9|      this dismay'd, the King of Friesland stung~His horse, and turned
13     9|    prison stayed.~ ~ LXXXIII~To Friesland's king that people hatred
14     9|        thence, upon the king of Friesland's land,~Would try his fortune (
15    10|        proud king who ruled the Friesland state;~That with Bireno'
16    10| descried no more;~Since to shun Friesland they to larboard hawl.~And
17    10|       where.~ ~ XXXII~"Can I to Friesland go, where I to reign~As
18    11|         made)~In Holland and in Friesland left no land~To the false
19    14|    sable; he was bred~Between a Friesland mare and nag of Spain.~King
