  6     2|           no sooner blazes in his face,~Than his foe tumbles dazzled
  7     2|        Rogero's name,~Her radiant face with eager joy dilates.~

  9     3|    opposing wall; whence, face to face,~A woman issuing forth,
 10     3|      reflects thy fair and joyous face;~He, first of thine and
 11     4|    venerable sire, with sorrowing face;~Whose hair and wrinkles
 12     4|       beauteous be~Than thy sweet face, mar not my pious care;~
 13     5|         and faltering voice, pale face,~And mouth of gall, he answered, '
 14     5|       meet,~And kiss his lips and face with loving show,~As him
 15     5|            is not here the foe to face;~Since many months has roved
 16     6|        seen before,~The cherished face of Ariodantes true,~Of late
 17     6|        courser hies.~Then, with a face suffused with crimson, he~
 18     6|        towards us with a cheerful face,~With graceful gestures,
 19     6|   misdoubt the fay.~With laughing face Alcina mounts behind,~Leaving
 20     6|      monstrous paunch and bloated face;~Who a slow tortoise for
 21     7|           imitate his speech, and face, and cheer,~She knew so
 22     7|   borrowed cheer;~With that grave face, and reverend with age,~
 23     7|        lean, and wrinkled was the face, and white,~And thinly clothed
 24     8|        tearing what he crossed to face;~So her the hermit by a
 25     8|       bright~Directs, which water face and breast with tears,~And
 26     8|           hand upon her moistened face,~In speaking, now upon her
 27     8|         damsels held most fair of face,~To Proteus every day should
 28     8|      bright eyes, and that bright face, I say,~Which from his breast
 29     9|           of woe~A lady found, if face may grief declare,~And sable
 30    10|         the ground, and lies~With face than snow more cold and
 31    10|    Stretched on the bed, upon her face she lay,~Bathing it with
 32    10|     discreet,~If of the heart the face is warranty.~Giving God
 33    10|         gladly with her hands her face would hood,~Were they not
 34    11|     untied,~So that the warrior's face Rogero spied.~ ~ XIX~Of
 35    11|           evermore~Holds down her face, he ill can her discern:~
 36    11|          knight~As he perused his face; so much the more,~That
 37    11|      tears o'erflowed.~ ~ LXV~Her face was such as sometimes in
 38    12|          withdraws, and shows~Her face, unveiled to the Circassian'
 39    12|            still gaze with stupid face;~Like questing hound which
 40    12|    squalid tomb~Covered his manly face, wore harness good~(Such
 41    12|           concealed, sometimes in face of day,~As seemed most opportune
 42    12|            in this rude repair,~A face so gentle and so passing
 43    13|       hoar,~That wearing her fair face, who seemed the thrall~Of
 44    14|      pined,~And showed a mournful face, and hung his head.~Next
 45    14|        son,~Who raised his daring face, resolved to go~And find
 46    14|             so it from her lovely face appeared,)~For others mourned,
 47    14|      reign.~ ~ LII~When that fair face by him of Tartary~Is seen,
 48    14|           forbore~To fix upon his face her pitying eyes.~The paynim
 49    14|       there with folded hands and face supine,~Exclaimed, "O Lord!
 50    15|      blush for shame,~Nor dare in face of man to lift his eyes,~
 51    16|         cost, beneath a courteous face.~ ~ VII~As I relate to you,
 52    16|      shapes her mien,~That in her face no signs of dread appear,~
 53    16|          one who looks him in the face.~Throughout that street,
 54    17|        more, that you now fear to face~One of that very blood,
 55    17|        The sight of that terrific face sustains!~But if fear shook
 56    17|       took his way.~She, with sad face, and suppliant evermore,~
 57    18|        sob he storms, with horrid face and eye,~Which threat the
 58    18|         small his fear by act and face.~ ~ LXII~But when, approaching
 59    18|           him, where the peer~His face directed, and large passage
 60    18|       with so horrible and foul a face~He never Fortune had beheld,
 61    18|      Fortune, when she turned her face,~But that dark night upon
 62    18|           a fairer or more jocund face.~Crisp hair he had of gold,
 63    19|           his eyes that beauteous face survey,~Takes pity on the
 64    19|         presence and of beauteous face,~And lofty manners, sagely
 65    19|     plight,~And smeared with mud, face, reins, and bosom o'er'~
 66    20|          As well as in a kindling face, displayed~How much with
 67    20|       accomplishment,~Of pleasing face and manners was the peer,~
 68    20|          here and with a mournful face;~Knowing, if he himself
 69    20|          such a wound,~That all a face of burning crimson wore.~
 70    20|         he descried~That beldam's face, though he was full of rage;~
 71    20|         hill, survey~Each other's face, nor any word is spoken.~
 72    21|       stranger knight espied~That face, which was so hateful in
 73    21|            And from his deathlike face the vizor raised;~And he,
 74    21|             XXI~"And with flushed face, and hair in disarray,~He
 75    21|       From me to-day has sued for face to face;~And in such manner
 76    21|       to-day has sued for face to face;~And in such manner that
 77    21|          set him two for one.~Her face was with the venom in a
 78    22|       woman, with a passing woful face.~ ~ XXXVII~Rogero, as still
 79    22|          the maid, whose troubled face apears~Bathed with a briny

 81    22|          LXII~"But let me face to face, by Heaven, espy~Those who
 82    23|           But bathed his neck and face with briny tear.~Orlando,
 83    24|    Zerbino, looking either in the face,~Knows one Corebo of Biscay
 84    24|            declining~Her mournful face, which with her tears o'
 85    24|          loved Zerbino, with pale face,~And cold as ice, remained
 86    24|           wound the Sarzan in the face,~Because his Trojan arms
 87    25|           dismist, and turned his face~Whither he with the damsel
 88    25|         The youth condemned, with face of pallid hue.~ ~ IX~As
 89    25|          IX~As on the stripling's face he turns his eyes,~Which
 90    25|       more intently he espies~Her face and shape: when thus the
 91    25|        shade,~Covered, except her face, with martial gear,~-- In
 92    25|        she beheld a cavalier:~The face and manly semblance she
 93    25|           fair to her my sister's face~Appeared, less fair her
 94    25|          to forego;~Sometimes her face, sometimes her tresses tears,~
 95    25|      compelled the cruel flame to face:~There Flordespina made
 96    25|        courteous lore,~And with a face, so jocund and so gay,~She
 97    25|          has no sooner touched my face than I,~I know not how,
 98    25|            And hence in heart and face the warrior grieved.~ ~
 99    26|        And delicate and beauteous face displayed:~Her the knights
100    26|       soon as Mandricardo saw her face,~In trust that, could he
101    26|       view,~With arms of crimson, face of pallid, hue.~ ~ LXXVII~
