Canto

  1     1|          each to each was known by sight,~But each had proved in
  2     1|       tangled screen, far less the sight.~ ~ XXXVIII~Within soft
  3     1|      visage propt upon his arm) to sight~Changed into senseless stone
  4     1|              And boughs deceive my sight, yon noble steed~Is, sure,
  5     1|            hazard, she directs her sight,~Sounding in arms a man
  6     2|          him feeble and demure,~At sight of the delighted damsel,
  7     2|          gallant bearing, which at sight,~Prepared who saw her for
  8     2|   wonderful the work, more fair to sight~The walls appeared, as I
  9     2|             and when I regained my sight,~After long time, saw neither
 10     2|             a rocky cavern met his sight,~Amid those precipices dark
 11     3|          prison Mars, removed from sight.~His fair endeavours bent
 12     3|             swoln eyes, and cloudy sight,~A nose close flattened,
 13     4|          grew:~For often times, to sight, the lance he shook;~And
 14     4|          virtuous ring assured her sight:~Yet she her blows discharges
 15     4|       disposed to take him from my sight,~Before the youth be into
 16     4|    stedfast eyes~As long as feeble sight can serve her use;~And in
 17     4|            through the skies,~When sight in vain the cherished youth
 18     4|       squat within a valley out of sight:~Nor cares the good Rinaldo
 19     5|      appears to me, though such to sight~He seem, but rather some
 20     5|           s duke find favour in my sight.~ ~ VIII~"And for he seemed
 21     5|            name)~Well warranted by sight as well as word,~How ill
 22     5|           been there, had bared to sight~His visage, aye within his
 23     6|           he had sought, on nearer sight;~So painful seems the cruel
 24     6|          huge fowl, and strange to sight,~Bears off the warrior with
 25     6|  necromancer bore,~Which dazed the sight of the astonished foe,~Left
 26     6|            surer sense than mortal sight,~To judge between the two.
 27     6|           false or true,~Was never sight more fair or glad to view.~ ~
 28     6|          well-directed shaft, take sight~At hearts, and those spread
 29     7|          to plunder hearts in open sight.~Thence, through mid visage,
 30     7|            stars above him, at the sight~A flame, like that of kindled
 31     7|         the very measure seemed to sight,~As was she deemed, the
 32     7|            all should, manifest to sight, perceive~Upon thy neck
 33     7|        only dazzled the beholder's sight,~But seemed, when its silk
 34     8|          as they wont, when on the sight they play;~Senseless the
 35     8|            sees, decreasing to her sight,~The beach she left, which
 36     8|        beach she stood in Proteus' sight,~Left him to burn amid the
 37     8|            should in the Godhead's sight find grace.~The first and
 38     8|        shore,~Could see the grisly sight, and choose but moan~The
 39     8|            better than my heart or sight:~Who should and could, yet
 40    10|           is so soft and smooth to sight:~For past, as soon as bred,
 41    10|         longing in Bireno bred~The sight of food so passing delicate;~
 42    10|         her so, he ill endures her sight;~And, if his hope he long
 43    10|            shore, was any thing in sight.~She calls Bireno, and the
 44    10|          water lifts at length her sight,~And there returns where
 45    10|         sandy beach, still kept in sight.~ ~ XLIII~On him with threat
 46    10|           offends the adversaries' sight,~They from their vessels
 47    10|         never yet before of mortal sight,~Or after, viewed; with
 48    10|            was the land beneath in sight.~But taught to make him
 49    10|        bears a foundering bark! In sight~The next, is Berkeley's
 50    11|            forest, and secure from sight?~Of Bradamant he thinks
 51    11|          skies,~From bold Rogero's sight her beauty shrowds,~As disappears
 52    11|           half-seen, half-hid from sight)~Not without stirring jealous
 53    11|            the cavalier,~His level sight along the water thrown,~
 54    11|      Oberto, though the Paladin to sight~Was dripping, and with water
 55    11|            faithful witness was in sight.~ ~ LXXXII~That winter's
 56    12|        Rogero comes; where getting sight~Of his lost love, the County
 57    12|            is, but that she to the sight~Seems the Angelica he loves
 58    12|         enclosed,~Hence from their sight she vanished in a thought,~
 59    12|         questing hound which loses sight of hare~Or fox, of whom
 60    12|            she vanished from their sight.~Ferrau halts not, and Roland
 61    12|         view,~Regards such fearful sight, and marks the two.~ ~
 62    12|         loss of her, conveyed from sight,~As disappear the phantoms
 63    12|          better certify himself by sight.~When he without had tied
 64    12|        fifteen,~As far as at first sight he might surmise.~With that
 65    12|        scene~Seem in the warrior's sight a paradise.~Although this
 66    13|          love which so deceived my sight)~Praise in my eyes alone
 67    13|       disjoined from one another's sight.~ ~ IX~"Hence, when concluded
 68    13|         naked brands they rear.~At sight of their drawn swords, in
 69    13|           Biscayan say, and at the sight~Abandoned his design, and
 70    13|           lying show,~Trust not to sight where magic blears the eye.~
 71    13|     present to my heart, is now to sight?~If 'tis not him whom I
 72    13|         belief that's warranted by sight?~Even without eyes, and
 73    14|         rout had perished in their sight;~And in the coward's cheek
 74    14|          near,~He quitted, not for sight of France or Spain;~But
 75    14|            its way, and blinds the sight.~ ~ CXII~And this than iron
 76    15|         the Persian sea extends to sight;~Whence in few days the
 77    15|        dwells a giant, horrible to sight,~Exceeding every stature
 78    15|          when the duke appeared in sight;~For 'twas two months complete,
 79    15|          renowned for pyramids; in sight,~He marks the populous Cairo
 80    15|           were all things hid from sight;~When to the fort Orrilo
 81    15|            and yet more~Had by the sight of many a vigorous blow,~
 82    15|         among a thousand meets the sight:~But faithless, and of such
 83    16|       champions came.~At Gryphon's sight the harlot's spirits fall,~
 84    16|    ravening fire so fed,~Was never sight more sad! -- I told withal,~
 85    16|            the following crowd, in sight~Appeared, with levelled
 86    16|           more pity at the doleful sight~Than, 'mid those thousands
 87    17|    fungus-hue, in place of orbs of sight,~Their sockets two small
 88    17|         aught possest of scent and sight:~And wing and plume were
 89    17|            to the cavern door,~The sight of that terrific face sustains!~
 90    17|       helmet, where it locks, take sight,~And with their spears to
 91    17|           wain, conspicuous to the sight;~Harnessed to which two
 92    18|         den loud-bellowing, to the sight~Of the huge beast's enormous
 93    18|            the first which came in sight.~ ~ XXXVII~Discord at this,
 94    18|            Joppa quick succeeds to sight.~By Zibellotto and Baruti
 95    18|            coward in the warrior's sight belied,~And sprang towards
 96    18|           him out to one another's sight,~The hostile people all
 97    18|          determined, in the public sight~O' the city, guilty of that
 98    18|            valiant warriors in her sight,~As of large bone, and nerved
 99    19|            more~Can at the piteous sight his wrath refrain;~In furious
100    19|           who beholds the deed, at sight~Of young Medoro's fall,
101    19|   recollects a herb had caught her sight~In passing hither, on a
102    19|          his looks can satisfy her sight.~Nor yet of hanging on his
103    19|          from the puissant town in sight,~With armed barks, and upon
104    19|            up their vizors, at the sight~One of the other; for (by
105    20|     Through blemish, or disease of sight or pace.~Nor hoping but
106    20|            day,~And shameful in my sight were other way.~ ~  LXXVIII~"
107    20|        nigh quenched the warrior's sight, --~All for the damsel were,
108    20|       proclaim her old and foul to sight.~ ~ CXXI~To have sport of
109    20|          not suffer that so fair a sight~Thou shouldst behold, nor
110    21|        which was so hateful in his sight,~With menacing and savage
111    21|          blame. Enough that in HIS sight~-- Who sees and judges every
112    21|           detested husband rid her sight.~ ~ LX~"In presence of myself
113    21|         her, she was poison to his sight.~ ~ LXXI~Well read in young
114    22|            turret high,~Upon first sight of them, a sentinel~Beat
115    22|   sufferance, dazed the astonished sight:~To which Rogero, as a last
116    22|          That it may quickly be to sight revealed,~If he in need
117    22|          of the buckler joined the sight,~Who seemed as he would
118    22|         light, which quelled their sight and minds who saw;~And those,
119    23|            With pity at that cruel sight and fell.~ ~ XL~Dead lay
120    23|      willed not aught, that in her sight was dear,~The body of the
121    23|          Zerbino, and at the first sight~A baron of high worth esteemed
122    23|      prince on Isabella turned his sight,~Who had halted on the hill
123    23|       hundred, wert concealed from sight,~For what thou art thou
124    23|            yields a passage to the sight.~As if of ice, the shattered
125    23|              am not what I seem to sight:~What Roland was is dead
126    24|           distance has deceived my sight.~To combat with thee, he
127    24|          stirrups lost; and in her sight, so well~Beloved, appeared
128    25|          train withdrew her out of sight.~Nor left she any thing
129    26|            she on Rogero fixed her sight,~Deemed him unparalleled;
130    26|            blow, an inch below the sight:~Heaven-high the truncheon
131    26|      overtook him not, till he got sight,~Beside the fount, of Mandricardo
132    27|           Frontino ravished in his sight,~And be unable to forbid
133    27|         that I may have thee in my sight."~But in the following canto
134    28|         Queen's apartment here was sight,~Her choicest and her priviest
135    28|          sure it was no dream, his sight believed.~-- `A scorned
136    28|            swearing it; he, at the sight,~It seemed, would go distraught, --
137    28|           in her Heavenly Father's sight.~Loud laughed that godless
138    29|   different from himself was he to sight,~Nought of Orlando she in
139    29|           by a puff, she past from sight.~ ~  LXV~Was it through
140    30|            pointing at the vizors' sight, attacked,~Nor with their
141    30|            twas well~That from the sight diverged the trenchant blade,~
142    31|         Him underneath the vizor's sight offends~The stranger champion,
143    31|        friendly troop; and, at his sight~All like his father deemed
144    31|          he less had recognized at sight;~Because (such was the usage
145    31|            the train.~At the first sight of her he quits the fray,~
146    32|         land, desired and gladsome sight!~ ~ XI~Aye sick with hope
147    32|          thou was, and idol in her sight.~Her with thy honied words
148    32|        enamoured son,~That he lost sight no oftener of the fair~Than
149    32|          small worth in Tristram's sight possess,~Nor any, saving
150    32|          saving Yseult, please his sight,~Nor other dame to love
151    33|            Merlin, who beheld with sight as clear~The things to be,
152    33|          these pictures they their sight had fed,~And talked long
153    33|      beheld, sore wondering at the sight --~Then, leaves he Tarragon
154    33|             had miserably lost his sight.~And yet was this the monarch'
155    33|            accepted in thy Maker's sight.~Let it suffice, that I
156    34|      faster tie~Was fettered at my sight; and there enrolled~Amid
157    34|          Not only what appeared to sight did stain;~But even so searched
158    34|         Golden and silver hooks to sight succeed,~Heaped in a mass,
159    35|          satisfied their view~With sight of that fair mansion, far
160    35|          The names, which in their sight appear most fair;~Even thus
161    35|      marked the maid, that, in her sight,~Appeared a warrior fitted
162    35|           offer thee,~Till we have sight of Arles; then to repair~
163    35|       joust, much marvelled at the sight~Of the foe's courtesy to
164    36|          As this rejoices, as this sight is dear~To Bradamant, when,
165    36|        himself acknowledged in his sight,~Who so reveres and lauds
166    37|           faults they have in open sight;~Would hinder them of rising
167    37|          So that which never is to sight revealed,~Sitting, those
168    37|           XXVIII~At that dishonest sight and shameful, glows~Each
169    37|            he those secrets to the sight revealed,~Which Nature,
170    38|        descends;~Through whom with sight the Nubian is supplied:~
171    38|          humour, that obscured his sight,~Valiant Astolpho scaled,
172    38|       better to excuse him in your sight.~ ~ XLV~"The Nubian squadrons,
173    39|            phantoms, vanishes from sight.~ ~ VIII~The champions two,
174    39|            grief and wonder at the sight.~ ~ XLVII~So grieve and
175    39|         even to this day remain in sight:~For, hard by Arles, where
176    40|            look,~That, at the very sight, their foemen shook.~ ~
177    40|      turning towards the sea their sight,~Under full sail approaching,
178    40|           of his warlike lord lost sight --~To bold Rogero bore his
179    41|          flame more clearly to the sight,~Well proves the sire of
180    41|         tempest fell.~Now to their sight so high the billows leap,~
181    41|            rock, ahead, appears in sight,~Which vainly would the
182    41|          prayer,~As far as they by sight can followed be,~Follows
183    42|        flank, the sword appears in sight;~And well his mighty puissance
184    42| slaughtered Brandimart the piteous sight;~Nor sure of Oliviero's
185    42|       furiously till he was out of sight;~Though hard to clamber
186    42|            suddenly he passed from sight;~With him his horse: this
187    42|           which (beside what is in sight)~The skilful master underground
188    43|      savage life he led and out of sight,~Until impelled by love,
189    43|       shall you change; and to her sight~Present yourself, disguised
190    43|        wife, who pleased him so at sight,~He bore her impress in
191    43|         The face and figure to the sight to don;~And changed me --
192    43|       eastern blue, and fades from sight;~For now Aurora from her
193    43|        squire nor waiting wench in sight~Appears, yet noble is the
194    43|         dog she changed herself to sight;~The smallest ever seen,
195    43|        whole; and nothing hid from sight.~How sank his heart beneath
196    43|        said) she vanished from his sight;~Who haply lurked by day
197    43|           or dreamed that wondrous sight~He weened, of that his wits
198    43|          town, upon the left, from sight~Retired, and on the right
199    43|    evermore on heaven to fix their sight.~ ~ CXCVI~Roland on shipboard
200    44|         what blemish is so foul to sight~In damsel? What so ill,
201    44|           it seemeth better in thy sight~To wed with Caesar than
202    44|           when his son appeared in sight.~Leading his squadrons on
203    44|      woeful and bewildered (for to sight~Nothing in all the country
204    45|        France.~ ~ IV~'Tis plain to sight, through instances that
205    45|          it a desert horrid to the sight;~So, now that her Rogero
206    45|            or maid,~Blest with thy sight, should not be fired by
207    45|         lasts not, if Rogero is in sight.~Return to me, return, Rogero,
208    45|          all its beauties from the sight doth hide;~The wild winds
209    46|         Julia, a new Ginevra is in sight,~Another offset from the
210    46|        seen;~And well nigh at that sight the lady died.~Rogero, quickly
