Canto

  1     1|           mischief kindled by her eyes,~From him the prudent emperor
  2     1|          quickly to the warrior's eyes~(Though many days no news
  3     1|        her worth in every other's eyes.~ ~ XLIV~"And be she cheap
  4     1|           a tepid fountain of his eyes;~And, what I deem not needful
  5     1|          such wonderment a mother eyes,~With such excessive bliss
  6     1|           in him the son of Aymon eyes.~Her more than life esteems
  7     1|       spied,~Than on her laughing eyes deep darkness sate:~And
  8     2|          With sidelong glance and eyes more red than fire,~Then
  9     2|        never more shall meet your eyes."~ ~ XVIII~You might have
 10     2|       curse themselves as wanting eyes and ears,~To let their rival
 11     2|        royal city rose before~His eyes; where Charlemagne had taken
 12     2|          damsel thither turns her eyes,~A youthful cavalier she
 13     2|     helmet gleam.~While his moist eyes, and sad and downcast air,~
 14     3|     length, with modest brow, and eyes down cast,~Replied (like
 15     3|         sprite,~Is present to our eyes before his birth,"~Said
 16     3|          And thus, with streaming eyes, exclaim'd at last:~"Ah!
 17     3|            And lest to shut thine eyes, thou should'st suppose~
 18     3|           With shaggy brow, swoln eyes, and cloudy sight,~A nose
 19     3|         respite; for before~Thine eyes, concealed by it, the caitiff
 20     4|     follows every motion with her eyes.~When lo! a mighty noise
 21     4|         one to window slips,~With eyes upturned and gazing at the
 22     4|           in their own or other's eyes,~Esteemed as fair, the wretched
 23     4|       wondrous shield,~Closes her eyes and falls upon the field.~ ~
 24     4|        Troyano's heir.~Him, in my eyes, than son esteemed more
 25     4|          her he prized before his eyes, his heart,~His life; from
 26     4|        Rogero looks with stedfast eyes~As long as feeble sight
 27     4|       vanished from her view,~Her eyes she on the good Frontino
 28     4|          Rinaldo near approaching eyes,~He thither drives with
 29     5|       shall avail,~Unless my very eyes confirm the tale.'~ ~ XLII~" `
 30     5|          Since, witnessed by your eyes, to you is known~A wanton
 31     5|           been born without these eyes!"~ ~ LIX~" `By chance, upon
 32     6|         than eleven paces, to our eyes,~His back appears above
 33     7|        rise above~Two clear black eyes, say suns of radiant light,~
 34     7|        himself; and now up to the eyes~Plunged in a sea of bliss,
 35     7|         shape she wore~Before his eyes returned the magic dame;~
 36     7|         and loathes, with altered eyes,~And throws away what he
 37     8|       XXXVII~Landward in vain her eyes the damsel bright~Directs,
 38     8|           motionless,~Her languid eyes upturned, as in despair,~
 39     8|          grief found vent~Through eyes and tongue, in tears and
 40     8|       wore;~And at those puissant eyes, whence flashed the light~
 41     8|          great Creator turned his eyes, and stayed~The conflagration
 42     8|            But scarcely did thine eyes, Orlando close,~So on thy
 43     8|        fancy fed:~Of those bright eyes, and that bright face, I
 44     8|    tormenting grief, to think his eyes~Cannot again the lovely
 45     9|       traytour struck between the eyes.~ ~ XXXII~"And I remaining,
 46    10|      banished sleep; she oped her eyes: in view~Was nothing: she
 47    10|        seemed to see: for ill her eyes,~Things through the air,

 50    10|            who strains~His daring eyes to keep the sun in view;~
 51    10|          fastened his on her fair eyes,~His Bradamant he called

 53    10|          His forehead, 'twixt the eyes, Rogero smites,~But as on
 54    10|    perplext,~Whose sting into his eyes or snout is thrust:~And
 55    10|           as well those beauteous eyes should be~Defended, which

 58    11|            When, casting down her eyes in shame and fear,~The virtuous
 59    11|        believes her very hand and eyes.~Then softly to her mouth
