Canto

 1     8|         towards the west,~Green Ireland past, an isle is situate.~
 2     9| cruellest.~ ~ XII~"Know, beyond Ireland, in the briny flood,~An
 3     9|        fears, if he set foot on Ireland's shore,~Some other chance
 4     9|        Nor he in England nor in Ireland port~Will make, nor on the
 5    10|         only England, Scotland, Ireland, aid~King Charlemagne; but
 6    10|    force~So viewed, he next for Ireland shaped his course;~ ~ XCII~
 7    11|     that he, before~The King of Ireland, should not reach the land,~
 8    11|      upon that hand,~The men of Ireland, without let or fray,~Had
 9    11|     Oberto, he that reigns~O'er Ireland's people, who had understood~
10    11|       on that desert lair.~That Ireland's king was fired I well
11    11|       Waged with all means that Ireland can afford;~And this with
12    11|        The Paladin with them to Ireland hies,~From whence to France
13    11|       LXXVIII~Scarcely a day in Ireland's realm he spends:~And for
14    16|      make his way,~And those of Ireland in their march withstand,~
