 37    12|        Noritia, whilom fierce and bold.~But fitter now to counsel

 50    14|      manly back and breast~Of his bold ancestor, that Babel built;~
 51    15|       warred in vain,~And Gryphon bold: next Sansonet discerns,~
 52    15|         clear.~So far an end does bold Astolpho fare,~He is to
 53    15|           seat,~And in pursuit of bold Astolpho sped.~Fain had
 54    15|           rich girdle to Astolpho bold,~And spurs for either heel,
 55    16|        The high-minded barons and bold army stir;~And this was
 56    16|           the courser strong,~But bold Zerbino quickly rose anew;~
 57    16|          Warwick's count,~And the bold duke of Clarence, Henry
 58    16|       duke of Glocester Matalista bold~Assailed this while, and
 59    16|         the strife,~By Clarence's bold duke deprived of life.~ ~
 60    16|           France.~ ~  LXXIII~When bold French beheld his cruel
 61    17|         sumptuous court~Of barons bold and vassals, who advance,~
 62    17|          persuaded by the monarch bold)~As many goats as with our

 73    18|        and the paynim band.~These bold Rinaldo broke and overthrew;~
 74    18|     Rinaldo spied;~And deemed him bold, and of a valiant strain,~
 75    18|        and rampart span.~With the bold monarch of Andology,~The
