Canto

 1     9|     thus may well~Compute what wives and maids have perished
 2    13|        the lofty virtue of its wives:~And that thou may'st take
 3    15|     and stall,~Themselves, and wives, and families, and steeds.~
 4    16|       stand;~And their unhappy wives and children moan,~Which
 5    19|    there must stay and wed~Ten wives by him selected for his
 6    20|        women turned to teeming wives began~Lest they in time
 7    20|       the most faithful of his wives was hight)~Nor needs long
 8    27|      evermore.~ ~ CXXXVIII~"Of wives and mistresses the treachery~
 9    28|        are as weak;~And if the wives of others can be won~To
10    28|     are.~Our travellers to the wives of many sued,~And by as
11    28|        for two,~That their own wives are of no other vein~Than
12    28|    worse inclined~Than are the wives of others, and as chaste:~
13    28|      scower;~To their deserted wives again repair,~Nor of their
14    34|       Parcae are those ancient wives,~That in this fashion spin
15    37| Brought to that pass he by two wives had been;~This was the cause
16    37|       Thus husbands from their wives divided are,~Mothers from
17    37|        to swear,~They to their wives the rule of that domain~
18    46|      already with that maid~He wives; already in her bosom lies:~
