Canto

  1     1|         fell despite,~The monarch ill the interruption bore,~And
  2     1|  understands our need!~Two riders ill a foundered jade would bear,~

  6     2|         doubtful sea, which boded ill,~And rolled its heavy billows,
  7     2|           to the port,~Whence, in ill hour, they loosed with little
  8     2|      plant,~Though cruel Fortune, ill their wishes meeting,~Had
  9     3|   thwarting with just cause their ill design,~Shall thrash the
 10     3|        worth.~I see this captain, ill bested for war,~Go forth
 11     4|           brand.~ ~ ~ I~Though an ill mind appear in simulation,~
 12     4|     destinies:~For, if unknown an ill so near to thee,~Far less

 14     5|       seek our good~Does from too ill and foul a nature flow.~
 15     5|        sight as well as word,~How ill his love was cherished by
 16     5|           knight~Such discord and ill will he schemed to shed,~
 17     5|         buds; although~Cut off by ill success, with new increase:~
 18     5|       should my benefits repay so ill.~ ~ XXVIII~" `I am assured

 21     6|           rent,~Where scanty pith ill fills the narrow sheath,~
 22     6|           wounds, to aggravate my ill,~And that, alas! without
 23     6|     remedy perchance apply~To the ill, which thousand others could
 24     7|        lay,~Roughish and somedeal ill to beat, they went.~Besides

 34     9|          and nimble in pursuit of ill.~The count departs, disguised
 35     9|          Cymosco, worst among the ill;~So was the impious king
 36     9|           would serve his purpose ill,~Where he desires to take
 37     9|        Bids these be brought, but ill his followers hear;~For
 38    10|    satiety;~He loathes her so, he ill endures her sight;~And,

 57    13|        bent,~Rather than sate his ill desire, to die.~When menace
 58    13|          left did smite;~For that ill feature perished by the
 59    13|        square;~Propt on one huge, ill fashioned food and rude,~
