Canto

  1     1|          an Aetna glowed.~ ~ XLI~"Thought which now makes me burn,
  2     1|           woeful warrior long had thought~Upon his cruel case, and
  3     2|      fitful gale,~And never for a thought its ire assuages;~While
  4     2|          aims its blow,~Sank in a thought and rose; and soaring, laid~
  5     2|         himself within the brake,~Thought to abandon his unweeting
  6     3|        desire,~All labour and all thought will I combine,~To shape
  7     3|       sees.~ ~ V~The wily traitor thought that damsel sweet~Had perished
  8     3|           interpose to break that thought,~But boldly tread the path
  9     3|        but let him not divine~Thy thought, nor grant him respite;
 10     4|          watch upon our wandering thought;~What should the young Rogero'
 11     4|          distant lair,~The wizard thought but how to tame the foal;~
 12     4|          freed:~This was his only thought, his only care;~Who for
 13     4|        and spotless in the common thought."~ ~ LXIII~Rinaldo mused
 14     4|        that gentle deed.~My every thought is turned to aid the dame.~
 15     4|         vouch her guiltless in my thought,~In fear to warrant what
 16     5|          Since this he owned, and thought no shame to move~Me to assist
 17     5|        not in effect, at least in thought~To thrive, would interpose
 18     5|       many times repeating in his thought,~It was Geneura who his
 19     5|         season overthrew;~That he thought little, graced of each estate,~
 20     5|          what he never could have thought,~He of his daughter learns
 21     6|       Which to his cruel grief he thought he spied!~And next against
 22     6|        his cruelty,~Who will have thought to venge me with his brand,~
 23     6|      having this concluded in his thought,~Made new provision of arms,
 24     6|         France nor aught beside I thought upon:~In her my every fancy,
 25     6|         to a new career again~Now thought; but doubted next, in fear
 26     6|          arms.~ ~ LXVII~If he had thought the magic shield to show,~(
 27     6|          mirth.~Here hoary-headed Thought ne'er comes at all,~Nor
 28     7|        find the wondrous cave she thought,~Where the prophetic homes
 29     7|           sage, who night and day~Thought of the damsel, watchful
 30     7|         from his mind all further thought~Of love for false Alcina,
 31     8|       himself to stop the warrior thought,~And thus, with his left
 32     8|   bestowed~Small care on him, and thought but of retreat,~His sluggish
 33     8|        seized, but never held the thought:~As when, from sun or nightly
 34     8|     desire disturbs our rest,~The thought of her, exposed to shame
 35     9|         outward cheer yet more,~I thought, and think, and still shall
 36     9|      bound to me, they would have thought~My safety with their lives
 37     9|          and the victory won:~And thought to feast and nuptials he
 38     9|         he, saving him in malice, thought~He had a net wherewith I
 39     9|         do.~His speed outgoes all thought in every breast,~Exceeds
 40    10|        can in truth be styled, or thought.~ ~ IV~If her Bireno loved,
 41    10|        the dame to repossess, ~As thought, her lover flying from her
 42    10|         pair will expedite."~Then thought how good Rogero she should
 43    11|          had recalled the ring to thought,~Foiled and astounded, cursed
 44    11|          then first conceived the thought, again~To seek in the Levant
 45    11|           and pains him more,~The thought of having lost the precious
 46    11|        much the more,~That he had thought when told the tidings, none~
 47    12|          He moves, oppressed with thought and trouble sore,~Gradasso,
 48    12|     revolves~This in her doubtful thought, nor well resolves.~ ~ XXVII~
 49    12|         the Circassian's eye:~She thought to him alone; but fierce
 50    12|           sight she vanished in a thought,~And left them wondering
 51    12|           the wrong;~But, without thought to keep her plunder long.~ ~
 52    12|          disappointment, with the thought~That he was with Orlando'
 53    12|          the helmet only with the thought~To bring that deadly battle
 54    12|        helmet donned; but took no thought~What was the head-piece
 55    13|  ungrateful wight~Deemed that the thought he harboured in his head,~
 56    14|        lest, should he reveal his thought,~The quest by other champion
 57    14|         teach.~ ~  LXXIX~Upon the thought the posting angel brooded,~
 58    14|           prayer.~Strange Michael thought to see her there enshrined,~
 59    14|         valiant and robust,~Small thought upon the approaching ills
 60    15|           haply unprovided had he thought~With fitting guard. Upon
 61    15|        who upon the recent wonder thought)~Might think a dream to
 62    15|           Astolpho sees him, in a thought, renewed.~ ~ LXXXIII~After
 63    15|     long-cherished vow and former thought,~Too foreign, too remote;
 64    17|             A generous sprite~The thought of death -- approach he
 65    17|       prey,~Then he, without more thought, would him pursue~And follow,
 66    17|       away.~ ~ XLVI~"And when she thought he had imbibed the smell~
 67    17|     remained more constant in his thought.~In this sad servitude he
 68    17|        might.~As he had shaped in thought, he did the deed:~He took
 69    18|        gateway fall.~Gryphon, all thought of pity laid aside,~Threats
 70    18|          By which to sally, he to thought recals.~He comes at last
 71    18|       stung and pride,~Thither he thought a second time to go;~And
 72    18|         for those days she absent thought to be,~For her lieutenant
 73    18|         this, who read his secret thought,~Exclaimed, as she looked
 74    18|          with that bloody dye,~He thought that he beheld Horatius
 75    18|       What by the vilest knight I thought to do,~I to the best on
 76    18|         night and morning, in his thought,~How to content the injured
 77    18|          s land, offended Gryphon thought.~Each knight, in haste,
 78    18|          he of his life takes any thought;~Of which loathed burden
 79    18|         fly:~For 'twere a foolish thought (might well be said)~To
 80    19|       Barcelona's town~The couple thought a little to remain,~Until
 81    20|        his life, nigh loathed the thought;~And if Marphisa him perforce
 82    20|         is about to fly.~All in a thought betake them to their bows,~
 83    20|        Marphisa what will be your thought,~And Guido late so furious? --
 84    20|           his day:~Now shamed, he thought for ever. Troubled sore,~
 85    21|          her every wish and every thought~Schemes how my brother's
 86    21|           he, as one unstained in thought and deed,~So fell a goad
 87    21|           sad Philander hoped and thought~That love to him the dame
 88    21|           manner that long time I thought~Dishonour must have followed
 89    21|           slew him never had such thought,~Nor this would have believed:
 90    22|        Logistilla given in India, thought;~Bestowed, should new enchantment
 91    22|       intent upon his flight,~The thought of Rabicane detained the
 92    22|           into France:~After much thought, he to some friend would
 93    22|        twilight yet was blind,~He thought he saw, as he expecting
 94    22|          if smit by thunder, in a thought,~Gave way before the steel,
 95    22|        him now, was done~All in a thought; but first she barred the
 96    22|      effect than was in Gryphon's thought.~ ~ LXXXV~It rent and tore
 97    23|          to behold her more, less thought~To her his treason's forfeit
 98    23|           opening to the dame the thought he brewed,~To her the flying
 99    23|         the courser so,~That in a thought he vanished out of view.~
100    23|          once more~At Vallombrosa thought, if not before.~ ~ XVIII~
101    23| Vallombrosa to direct her way~She thought, in hopes to find Rogero
102    23|        enamoured maid compares in thought~These with the loved Rogero'
103    23|        would make thee change thy thought.~A better knight than thee
104    23|          in any manner could have thought,~Or hoped to have concealed
105    23|         he the assassin should be thought;~But well divined this was
106    23|         made reply,~That would be thought the truest of the train;~"
107    23|      sovereign stayed;~Because he thought, and held for certain case,~
108    23|          blood,~The Tartar little thought about his rein.~Firm in
109    23|        net or line; which, in the thought~To free its tangled pinions
110    23|          to himself returned, and thought~How possibly the thing might
111    23|        saw his guest so troubled, thought:~The tale which he was wonted
112    23|         by too puissant love, had thought no scorn~To be the consort
113    23|          till it marred his sober thought.~At length, impelled by
114    24|     sudden dread.~The madman in a thought is in their rear,~Seizes
115    24|           nose and either ear~Now thought, and her as an example shew.~
116    24|    prudence or to age.~ ~ XCII~He thought to bear her to Provence,
117    25|            So that a hundred in a thought were slain.~The sword Rogero
118    25|     dispel (she said)~The foolish thought she feeds, and that in me~
119    25|           of a better creed:~This thought makes good Rogero's bosom
120    25|     unhappy lover fruitlessly had thought~To find her at the abode
121    25|         said!~ ~ LXXXV~He, having thought on many things, in the end~
122    26|            The paynim leader in a thought is slain;~And with him,
123    26|     wanting, these you might have thought~Were living and with nerve
124    26|           paynim king affront,~He thought the damsel was his prize,
125    26|         in her sell;~And she, who thought to make his buckler fly,~
126    26|     Marphisa, who had evermore in thought~To prove the paladins of
127    26|        Heaven in his presumptuous thought.~ ~ CXXII~Discord, believing
128    26|       disdain all over in a glow,~Thought to accomplish her revenge,
129    27|         counsel, save, with sober thought,~He ruminates thereon, content
130    27|      Malagigi, through his little thought;~And fiendish malice, banished
131    27|       Paris he repaired again, in thought~The paladin returning to
132    27|    surprised him overwhelmed with thought,~Upon four spears his courser'
133    27|          faithless woman's fickle thought,~Which thither still inclines,
134    27|           paynim mute and lost in thought.~ ~ CXXXIII~From thought
135    27|          thought.~ ~ CXXXIII~From thought to thought the Sarzan's
136    27|           CXXXIII~From thought to thought the Sarzan's fancy flies,~
137    27|      dames than one were virtuous thought,~Until a gentleman of Venice,
138    27|       graved in stone:~And what I thought and think, would be professed~
139    28|           thing,~Who hitherto had thought the palm his own;~And such
140    28|       pain.~ ~ XIII~"For the mere thought produced such misery,~It
141    28|        which caused his moan;~All thought he had to Rome his steps
142    28|      could never be confined:~And thought, if in one taint all women
143    28|       come -- when she awhile had thought --~When he believed that
144    28|        XCV~Here standing, full of thought, upon a day,~(Such was his
145    28|       beauteous dame, he laid the thought aside~Of hatred to that
146    28|           whom the dame her every thought made known;~And said, when
147    28|        that godless paynim at the thought,~Who every faith and worship
148    29|               X~And by degrees so thought to mould the dame~To his
149    29|         of flame;~And ever on one thought her fancy beat:~If any mode,
150    29|         hight, that the beholders thought~It was a bird in air which
151    29|    dismist from bow:~Her ring she thought upon, and this the fair~
152    29|           bear her thence Orlando thought,~And in the end upon his
153    30|      abide.~ ~ XXV~Gradasso every thought and every deed~Employs,
154    30|        recognized this truth; but thought~That ill his royal word
155    30|           is broken at the simple thought.~ ~ XXXVI~"If of small value
156    30|      prized by me,~Who would have thought thou more than me could'
157    31|      where to honour you I had in thought,~I see my coming has but
158    31|       truce,~"Take you no farther thought upon your side~The battle
159    32|       amid the paynim throng,~She thought foul scorn to stain her
160    32|          lady more~Than her first thought; and she forthwith bade
161    32|         strong;~My every love and thought shall he possess;~Him for
162    32|          evermore evolving in her thought~Things that may chance,
163    32|        squall,~Had been a foolish thought; for now 'gan blow~A blustering
164    33|           Than I to other turn my thought from you.~When you I love
165    33|            And war upon his maker thought to wage.~He with his host
166    34|          cries and tumults, as he thought.~These were old crowns of
167    34|    Endureth, nor outlasts it by a thought.~For Death and Nature have
168    36|      rather she, that gentle lady thought,~Had joyed her love; and
169    36|      ataball.~ ~ XXX~As fierce as thought could think, 'twixt either
170    36|           the rest.~With eyes and thought intent, she stops to view~
171    36|      lines, methinks, took little thought,~Fair Bradamant, arriving
172    36|        youth pursued in love; she thought~He but to end their strife
173    37|        voice or lettered page the thought impart,~Though each, with
174    37|          heat,~He with too little thought the matter planned;~So that,
175    37|  overthrow him, at first shock he thought,~And to win dame and palm
176    37|            LVIII~"He had no other thought, no other aim,~No other
177    37|     certified;~But, because never thought within her grew~Which she
178    38|       them by the rein.~Thus in a thought each soldier had his horse,~
179    38|          know,~To say, `on this I thought not,' this I say;~Because
180    38|    esteemed not in his pride,~And thought he ill could keep him from
181    38|        And him to serve Marsilius thought no shame.~ ~ LXXVIII~The
182    39|        Rinaldo, unimpeded by such thought,~Strove in all ways Rogero
183    39|           forward without further thought.~ ~ VII~He, thinking that
184    39|          the royal Moor~Branzardo thought, in this distress, to truck;~
185    39|         as least inapt for sea he thought;~ ~ XXVI~And filling next
186    39|         the salt stream,~All in a thought transformed to vessels,
187    39|           he was brought thither, thought.~He turned his restless
188    39|       save his life i' the waters thought,~Or, at the worst, to perish
189    40|         Moorish barks, took other thought.~ ~ VIII~Into a boat he
190    40|           who marked, nor one who thought~Of marking, if such weight
191    40|         the valiant cavalier,~Nor thought he of retreat, albeit was
192    40|           blood and plunder, in a thought,~Destroy that sumptuous
193    40|      strife his town had sped,~He thought of dying, and himself had
194    40|       while in his heart~He other thought perchance did entertain.~
195    40|         for his meal.~Next have I thought how of the Nubian band~--
196    41|           skiff descend;~But in a thought so overcrowded are,~Through
197    41|         him from his steed.~"Thou thought'st to pass the sea, nor
198    41|          the sea, nor pay withal;~Thought'st to defraud the pilot
199    41|       redoubling still his blows,~Thought from the trunk the monarch'
200    41|         and with back-handed blow~Thought he his head should from
201    41|           Gradasso in his eyes or thought,~And to the paynim's throat
202    42|         could confide, the damsel thought.~ ~ XXV~And now her too
203    42|        memory dwells the restless thought,~He might a thousand times
204    42|         one short day.~ ~ XLV~The thought will never from his mind
205    42|        loving wight.~Vext by such thought, which racked and rent his
206    42|           monster halts,~Who in a thought upon the crupper vaults.~ ~
207    42|         that he, repentant, every thought~Of that so frantic love
208    42|     touched his lips, the warrior thought.~But let me, sir, repose
209    43|         lips the vase he bore;~He thought; then thus: "When finding
210    43|          what cannot by myself be thought,~How by some certain token
211    43|       drink or spill.'~ ~ XXXI~"I thought it hard to leave my consort'
212    43|    touched, somewhile immersed in thought~Rinaldo mused, and after
213    43|          lord (as it befell,~That thought moved thought, which others
214    43|        befell,~That thought moved thought, which others moved again)~
215    43|           should prove but what I thought;~And not succeeding, to
216    43|           he fully understood~The thought that prest the cavalier
217    43|         to view~He never saw, nor thought to see anew;~ ~ LXXIX~"And
218    43|         cheer,~Which will not let Thought run its restless round,~
219    43|          pursue;~For he had taken thought for her; and aid~Should
220    43|       with wondering eye,~Anselmo thought his intellects were gone:~
221    43|         had worked it so the lady thought;~And then was grieved at
222    44|     Rogero dear,~Him, Sir Rinaldo thought, this debt constrained;~
223    44|          own, as well as Roland's thought~And the others, harboured
224    44|          from its way my stedfast thought.~ ~ LXIII~"All power o'er
225    44|           Lost was all order in a thought, and they~With all their
226    45|          from its place.~A second thought succeeds, and paints the
227    45|           and blind;~And so, this thought absolves the cavalier;~And
228    45|            Ah! wellaway! if in my thought Love so~Thy thought, as
229    45|         in my thought Love so~Thy thought, as thy fair visage, had
230    45|          superhuman seemed to be,~Thought much, and mused, and planned,
231    45|          will be deserved, Rogero thought.~ ~ LIII~Thither meanwhile
232    45|       daylight blind,~Raised in a thought from earth, and whirled
233    45|           worst that can by me be thought?~ ~ XCVIII~"How can it be,
