 4    26|   twixt those combatants leapt Argier's lord,~And quick Marphisa
 5    26|    trenchant blade.~ ~ CXVI~On Argier's king he sprang, like savage
 6    26|    This warrior at the king of Argier ran,~And from Rogero severed
 7    27|     him departs the monarch of Argier,~Who is rejected of his
 8    27|   Tartar king and sovereign of Argier.~ ~ XLVI~Rogero and Mandricardo
 9    27|    lodged the giant monarch of Argier;~And him assist his serpent-hide
10    27|     the second battle, so~That Argier's monarch first affront
11    27|       LXXV~The furious king of Argier, that in pride~Surpassed
12    27|      side,~Longer his horse to Argier's lord allow,~Save humbly
13    27|    lady to forego,~The king of Argier, overwhelmed with woe.~ ~
