Canto

  1     1|         the sands,~'Twill ask no light endeavour at his hands.~ ~
  2     1|          so interwoven, that the light~Pierced not the tangled
  3     1|        hold in higher place~Than light or life the flower which
  4     2|      young Rogero held the honor light,~The King of Sericane his
  5     2|        by the clear and dazzling light.~I, too, that from a distant
  6     2|        inner room:~From thence a light shone out on every side,~
  7     3|       redoubted valour lend such light,~The willing people call
  8     3|         Hippolitus; who with the light shall shine,~Of his wise
  9     3|    mortal view,~Would quench and light again the lamp of day.~Then,
 10     3|         the skies~With his first light, myself the way will show~
 11     4|        his foe,~And by the magic light, astonished, throw.~ ~ XXII~
 12     4|      where the sun, with sinking light,~When he goes round the
 13     4|       like well-greased bark and light,~Which through the sea a
 14     6|       people, and nobility:~Such light his goodness and his valour
 15     6|          divinity~She is; -- the light and comfort of my eye.~Her,
 16     6|     smooth, or clad in scales of light,~And more in number than
 17     6|          L~"Late I discerned her light and fickle bent,~Still loving
 18     7|          tale a lie,~In whom the light of reason shines so clear.~
 19     7|        eyes, say suns of radiant light,~Which ever softly beam
 20     7|           XXVIII~Though but in a light sendal clad, that she~Wore
 21     7|          descends with westering light.~She knows not what to think,
 22     7|          how swift the steed and light.~Him Rabicano those who
 23     8|         eyes, whence flashed the light~Of the most radiant torch
 24     9|         when the day its shining light displayed,~He wholly searched
 25     9|        as he appears, with ready light~Touches the hole, and fires
 26     9|       first rose so ready and so light,~He from the fall seemed
 27    10|         rather that quit her the light should leave,~And what is
 28    10|        on their needs, a pinnace light,~Until a breeze should fill
 29    10|       she held so dear.~Love, no light cause, incites the dame
 30    10|         to open view the shining light.~The enchanted splendor,
 31    10|       about with such a flood of light,~That he who has them, Phoebus,
 32    10|        field of green displays a light.~Now see the Irish, next
 33    10|      twixt the ears his blow may light;~Now on the spine, or now
 34    10|         vest,~To dazzle with the light his blasted view.~Landward
 35    10|        Feared lest the buckler's light should be impaired,~And
 36    11|          the sky, and dimmed the light~Of the clear sun, so high
 37    11|         from the orc, emerged to light,~Whom he had entered bodily,
 38    11|        rejoicing in the chrystal light.~ ~ LXVI~The stripling heats
 39    12|    Arrived where in the wood the light was shed,~Forth-streaming
 40    13|           on the shore we safely light~Who in the skiff embarked;
 41    13|         thief's sole minister of light.~Nor is the stroke content
 42    13|    laurel evergreen, as shorn~Of light, stained glass by gem that
 43    14|     changes home and company,~To light on him would be a fortune
 44    14|          Dimmed every glimpse of light, and hid the sun:~A fearful
 45    15|      there, for months together, light is none.~ ~ XIII~Next, when
 46    15|           no further, shalt thou light~(Pursued the hermit) on
 47    16|          is grievous and another light."~Yield me belief, and deem
 48    16|     ground, like corn before~The light and fickle breeze which
 49    17|        to a serpent, issued into light,~Having cast off his slough,
 50    17|        but well, holds cheap and light.~But where you are, I doubt
 51    17|     joust, which at the morrow's light,~Ensuing, in the square
 52    17|        dead,~Than living without light of thee, my sun!~I trust
 53    17|     valour flame~More clear than light, or they, to censure prone,~--
 54    17|          honour makes so passing light;~ ~ CXXI~Who, after feat
 55    18|        larboard left) the galley light;~From Tripoli to Tortosa
 56    18| south-south-wester, which seemed light,~In the beginning, while
 57    18|          And not by any cheering light or ray.~Now, with more fear (
 58    18|         and frequent watch-fires light.~The paynim fashions ditch
 59    18|           till, clothed in amber light,~The radiant sun had traversed
 60    18|          a number,~But they must light on one who does not slumber.~ ~
 61    18|      approaching was the lord of light,~To sweep from heaven the
 62    19|  Returning, she upon a swain did light,~Who was on horseback passing
 63    19|    busied in the well by torch's light.~ ~ XLV~This one beneath
 64    19|         appearance of St. Elmo's light,~Which (every spar was gone)
 65    19|      flaming, they the beauteous light surveyed,~All those aboard
 66    19|        to rest until to-morrow's light,~Then to renew the battle,
 67    19|          rested till to-morrow's light?~Right fortunate was I,
 68    19|      doubtful fray:~Nor, without light, could either foe see clear~
 69    19|        no longer shalt enjoy the light.~With reason to the sex'
 70    19|       prosecute by this or other light,~Behold me prompt thy wishes
 71    20|      lore,~Shine two illustrious light, to set no more.~ ~ II~Women
 72    20|          The wandering sun sheds light and colouring hue,~I by
 73    20|          this miserable land did light,~Should have his choice
 74    20|         backs,~If ruddy yet with light the orient wax.~ ~ LXXXII~
 75    20|      near, the fire's encircling light,~Which had, while slumber
 76    21|      Within my chamber, where no light will be;~Till I shall make
 77    21|  Secreted in the chamber without light,~Till thither came the wretched
 78    21|      Wills that Philander with a light survey~The man whom he on
 79    21|       with the assistance of the light,~Shows him Argaeus in the
 80    22|        virtue dim the sun's fair light;~But turning to the various
 81    22|       from the starboard blowing light,~Had tempted forth Astolpho'
 82    22|         rehearsed, the fire will light."~ ~ LVIII~Rogero ceased;
 83    22|      already said, the enchanted light~Strikes with such force
 84    22|         alone are dazzled by the light,~But every sense astounds
 85    22|          the bottom fell,~By the light, liquid element concealed.~
 86    22|          had removed as well~The light, which quelled their sight
 87    22|          fray~Each by the horrid light was quelled, debate.~While
 88    23|         western sun withdrew his light,~Abandoning the world above
 89    23|       best he can, will make him light.~Yet keeps the sword and
 90    23|     first, nor he on steed could light~Fairer or fitter; yet to
 91    23|         shine confest,~By my own light, in motion or at rest.~ ~
 92    23|       And, at the break of daily light, was brought~By his unhappy
 93    24|      conquest where she listeth, light)~So backed my arms, that
 94    24|         recount his suit)~Him no light cause had stirred, but puissant
 95    24|          bodies cherish hope not light,~That they shall have a
 96    24|          finished, like a feeble light,~Which needs supply of was,
 97    24|        fiery balls and sparks of light.~The croupe, with head reversed,
 98    25|       Afric, in Arzilla, saw the light;~To shield and spear enured
 99    25|      wearied eyes should slumber light,~All is deceitful that brief
100    25|    witnesses of little worth and light.~-- This, as it may! --
101    25|       for pen and paper, ink and light.~ ~ LXXXVI~That which is
102    25|        blame upon his head~Would light, if Agramant applied in
103    25|        wide,~Greet the returning light with gladsome strain,~Sir
104    26|        ice, and she like burning light.~Nor her Rogero with less
105    27|        by their wisdom and their light;~And thou remainest blind
106    27|          The selfsame course, by light of moon or sun.~ ~ XIII~
107    28|          From whence this sudden light of comfort came,~No less
108    28|        should live with thee, my light,~Flammetta, thou, alas!
109    29|        very heart, his life, his light,~She was his comfort, and
110    29|       know where I on this could light,~Which, being boiled with
111    29|        it between her lips, like light~Extinguished by a puff,
112    30|        passion; let your censure light~On foe, who treats me so
113    30|          on whom the chance will light~(Cries Agramant) and further
114    30|          thither ere the dawn of light,~Upon the place of combat
115    30|      ground of strife so passing light,~With the same risk prepares
116    30|      love of Heaven! of thing so light:~For if (to my sole harm)
117    30|          applauds.~ ~ LXXXIX~Nor light suspicion has she of that
118    31|         blindman covets the lost light,~In rapture cries, "What
119    31|    mistake of purpose or of way,~Light from thine horse and doff
120    31|      from Tartarean caverns into light;~Whose many spears and banners
121    32|      poor wretch for liberty and light,~Or his loved land, desired
122    32|        impatient for the dawn of light,~From time to time she to
123    32|          seen without the aid of light.~Easily mightest thou a
124    32|      care where, at the close of light,~To find befitting shelter
125    32|      fires in nimble wise;~Whose light on storied wall and ceiling
126    33|     mid-way.~Behold! how Fortune light does shift and veer,~So
127    33|           nay swore,~Even by the light which lights the glorious
128    33|      dare not ask -- restored to light;~For well I ween such power
129    33|      toward the torrid zone;~Nor light until they reach that loftiest
130    33|         to him who would abandon light,~The terrifying bugle ceased
131    34|         dim cavern was so little light,~-- Yea, well-nigh might
132    34|     well-nigh might be said that light was none --~Nought sees
133    34|         return into the glorious light,~My huge desire such favour
134    34|        fill or fall, the foliage light,~To the quick air such lively
135    34|      splendour and such glorious light~Shot from those walls, beyond
136    34|         by reason of the lack of light,~Their images attained to
137    34|       Astolpho took; nor this so light he found,~As it appeared,
138    35|         rich a gift of God shall light.~ ~ IX~"All those fair graces,
139    35|        parforce in Lethe's water light~The worthy names, which
140    35|        Who makes them loathe the light of poetry,~That envious
141    36|         thee the sun bestows his light.~Remorseless aera, which
142    36|       And first together saw the light of day.~ ~ LX~"Galaciella'
143    37|        who would lend each other light.~Men do their best, that
144    37|        hems the ghosts, to upper light~Has dragged her lord, in
145    37|         strive to bring into the light of day;~But nine in ten
146    37|         troop; and when Aurora's light~Serves as a signal to the
147    38|      Returns; and with that very light the peer,~With the black
148    39|      posting thither on a palfry light,~Is seen a damsel, clad
149    40|        feathers or on straw, did light;~And, like cloth shred and
150    40|         son, she flew on pinions light,~Nor ever paused upon her
151    40|          that to Egypt's people, light~And lacking faith, he should
152    40|       believes would be no error light.~The Moors were broke and
153    41|   courtesy the great and lasting light,~Which ever, brightening
154    41|       wind that with the dawning light~Should have abated, gathered
155    41|     discover if alone,~Laden, or light, the stranded vessel were,~
156    41|      Until the skies the dawning light receive,~Armed servants
157    42|         yet survived; but little light~The wounded monarch had,
158    42|      shining ray,~Clear, lasting light, if, questioning my word,~
159    42|         wends towards the rising light:~He the straight road to
160    42|        turn his inextinguishable light.~Nor of less help in need
161    42|    retreat~Had driven from upper light that beast of hell~(Where
162    42|          she first shall see the light~Within its circuit, than
163    42|         the brightest, flung her light as far,~As amid lesser fires
164    43|      closed his eyes on Phoebus' light,~Numbered one hundred years,
165    43|      from me obtain one spark of light~From that first flame my
166    43|         drowned~Forthwith is her light mirth; for of my woe~Esteeming
167    43|  Arriving here, upon the dawn of light,~For yet some stars were
168    43|       stands still, and dims its light:~Fixt earth is moved, and
169    43|         so her harassed eyes the light abhorred,~And so was every
170    43|         the westering sun's fair light was spent.~With many nobles,
171    44|  scattered in mid-air, like such light gear,~Go eddying with the
172    44|         the sea-marshes last his light career~He stopt, on rich
173    44|          festive music, laughter light,~Applause and favour of
174    44|       puissant with the weak and light,~Shall ever make me thee
175    45|    dungeon-cell, where thread~Of light was never by Apollo thrown:~
176    45|     beholds it, when the sun his light~Hath sloped toward the north,
177    45|          shall no sooner spy~The light of thy glad countenance
178    45|         gaol is found at dawn of light,~The gaoler strangled, and
179    45|        Till wearied strength and light together fail.~ ~ LXXX~Didst
180    45|      that I shall be esteemed as light,~If what I lately said,
181    45|        ladies that have past~For light, I am not, I, the first
