Canto

 1     1| spray that rustled, bred~(Of oak, or elm, or beech), such
 2     4|    shadowy groves of ancient oak,~Oft echoes to the champion'
 3    14|    nor far off, the gorgeous oak~Seized, and shook down the
 4    15|     weighty chain~To a tough oak, whose ancient trunk they
 5    16|  brand;~But targets, some of oak and some of skins,~And quilted
 6    19|      among the trees,~Behind oak, elm, beech, ash, he takes
 7    19|      than stout and stubborn oak, appeared;~So splintered
 8    22|    stick,~Of stubborn native oak, and two palms thick.~ ~
 9    23|       with a single staff of oak, had ta'en.~ ~ LXXII~Yet
10    23|   up-tore;~And ilex, knotted oak, and fir upset,~And beech,
11    23|    sturdy trees and stems of oak.~ ~ CXXXVI~The shepherd
12    24|      breathe,~Next shake the oak and ash-tree as they blow;~
13    45|  wall, strong tower, or aged oak,~No more are moved by blasts
