Canto

 1     3|        To the Disposer of all earthly grace:~And, kneeling, hears
 2     8|      lost her honour, in this earthly ball?~What profits it that,
 3     8|      that matchless flower of earthly charms~Discovers in the
 4     9|      end to gain;~Nor for the earthly thunderbolt applies,~That
 5    11|     to spread throughout this earthly ball,~So swims the beast,
 6    13|    she shall be released from earthly care,~Men will among the
 7    15|       that horse which has no earthly peer,~And moves so lightly,
 8    18|       were known,~She, for no earthly thing, the iron vest~And
 9    18|     descended,~And hushed all earthly matters and suspended:~ ~
10    24|   betide~To end my days, this earthly journey done,~I cheerful,
11    26|     or maimed throughout this earthly ball;~Yea, fiercest seemed
12    29|   utmost force, to which this earthly ball~Haply affords few paragons,
13    34| dwells below, nor leaves this earthly ball.~ ~ LXXXII~He turns
14    37|      all worth, which in this earthly round~Is seen in them who
15    38|   cross of snowy grain,~-- Of earthly monarchs thou most sage
16    38|      lucid round,~On this our earthly planet's loftiest height.~
17    39|      confest~As perfect as is earthly cavalier,~Guide the savage,
18    39|       saints had told,~In the earthly paradise, as tokens true.~
19    46|      Not in four ages in this earthly round~Was ever born a boy
