Canto

 1     6|    sweeping net she bore,~What fish she willed, at pleasure
 2     6| XXXVIII~"Alcina made the ready fish obey~By simple words and
 3     6|    note the different sorts of fish I snare;~Shaggy or smooth,
 4     6|  lament my rashness, climb the fish.~ ~ XLI~"To Dudon and Rinaldo'
 5     6|   beside the bay.~The obedient fish performs the task assigned,~
 6     7|    thrush:~And casting now for fish, with net or book,~Disturb
 7     9|      to explore,~Since neither fish nor fowl, if from his side~
 8     9| sweeping nets,~The wary fisher fish and pool besets.~ ~ LXVI~'
 9    11|       interval, his throat~The fish, to swallow him, expands
10    11|         and drag the monstrous fish to ground,~His scattered
11    11|  billows sweeping,~That horrid fish, but might his labour spare:~
12    15|       is the throw:~For like a fish can fierce Orrilo swim;~
13    29|     Roland was naked, and like fish could swim,~Here shot his
14    43|     last he found~He could not fish the truth by prayer or fee,~
