Canto

  1     1|          was below~His opposite in force and knightly skill:~The
  2     1|      masque:~Make one of these, by force of arms, thine own.~And
  3     1|           and stream, with furious force~And whatsoever else impedes
  4     2|         his master, or put out his force.~For voice, nor hand, nor
  5     2|         champions will assay~Their force with him who dwells on yonder
  6     2|          prepared Rogero's gaol to force,~Or to be slain, or in his
  7     3|            i' the dark,~Or whether force of spell or fumigation,~(
  8     4|     compass and more freely put in force,~As by the enchantress schooled,
  9     6|           rein.~"No, I will win by force the mountain stair,"~Rogero
 10     7|           lips shut up or show.~Of force to melt the heart of any
 11     8|      cavalier,~Measured by wit and force, was worthiest.~Though not
 12     8|       mankind; nor he,~Such is the force of wrath, was moved to spare~
 13     9|         then in manhood's May,~And force of love, unfelt by me before,~
 14     9|       laughs to scorn what wit and force can do.~Strange arms he
 15     9|         Save in that time, through force or through deceit,~He by
 16     9|          when aid,~Whether of open force or treasured ore,~No longer
 17     9|         the fall seemed breath and force to gain.~As African Anteus,
 18     9|          view~He rose with doubled force and vigour new.~ ~ LXXVIII~
 19    10|        from end to end the English force~So viewed, he next for Ireland
 20    11|           honeyed meal 'tis ill to force,~If once he scent the tempting
 21    11|       constrained,~Dragged by that force which every force exceeds;~
 22    11|          by that force which every force exceeds;~Which at a single
 23    12|      pursues a knight~Who bears by force his lady-love away,~And
 24    12|            young, and of redoubted force,~Alzirdo was, and prized
 25    13|      evermore increases, with such force,~Starboard or larboard,
 26    13|         flattery,~He would by open force his will content;~Nor boots
 27    14|       Ferrau commands;~And in this force, well-sheathed in mail and
 28    14|          who the Moorish monarch's force would tell,~Which Charlemagne
 29    14|         been:~So matchless was his force and sword so keen!~ ~ CXXXI~
 30    16|            knows her lover has not force and breath~To save her from
 31    16|           had, with Edward, sent a force,~Six thousand strong, of
 32    16|        Zerbino's death, a glorious force,~And wounded in his flanks
 33    16|       stroke, so matchless was his force,~Zerbino cleft the rider
 34    16|      Artalico and Margano knew~The force of Ariodantes' circling
 35    16|        Lurcanio shows what are his force and breath;~Who charges,
 36    17|      crowned;~And gifted them with force and subtlety,~A sinful world
 37    17|          would assay his warriors' force. --~ ~ XXV~"The gorgeous
 38    17|            had made his prize,~And force her to the cavern to retrace~
 39    17|        that Love and Pity's mickle force~Was proved in that so dread
 40    18|       weened that she could ill by force be torn~From such a puissant
 41    18|            afterwards increased in force t'wards night,~Raised up
 42    19|          And into him infused such force again,~That he could mount
 43    19|       disembarking, as of greatest force,~The boom had chosen out
 44    19|          they fly:~While with such force the encountering steeds
 45    19|        parted aether through.~More force those shields, those helms,
 46    20|             and the statute put in force.~ ~ XXVIII~"The women, when
 47    20|    maintain~This of ourselves, and force, withal, to speed.~Would
 48    20|            are due)~-- You have to force your way with stedfast breast,~
 49    20|         appall.~I would my passage force in open day,~And shameful
 50    20|       strike, and laboured hard to force the door.~But such a storm
 51    20|             She, for her matchless force, deservedly~Usurps from
 52    21|            hatred hence derive new force.~Towards loud cries Zerbino
 53    21|        would have ravished that by force,~Which he expects to win
 54    21|           poisons slay~Than he the force of healing syrup scanned;~
 55    22|          more, but to the task his force does bend,~And prove how
 56    22|            light~Strikes with such force on the beholder's eyes,~
 57    23|    Charlemagne, had raised another force.~Embraces brotherly and
 58    23|          as you relate, be of such force,~That he surprises all beside
 59    23|         craven kind, with headlong force~Three miles in rings had
 60    23|          yet the mischief gathered force and spread,~And would break
 61    23|        bathed in sweat, and wasted force,~Serves not his fury more)
 62    24|          But, yielding to superior force, I read~I should not merit
 63    24|             the vigorous heart new force supplies~To the weak body
 64    24|           And straight with double force the stroke repaid.~ ~ CIV~
 65    25|         youthful breast,~Impetuous force of love, and thirst of praise!~
 66    25|             XIV~Such good Rogero's force and valour are,~As never
 67    25|     warrior's hand?~If e'er Rogero force, e'er fury shewed,~If e'
 68    25|        ends;~Nature and Elements I force: thy prayer~Shape to the
 69    26|        well worthy fierce Rogero's force,~The paynim leader in a
 70    26|          showed the paynim, who by force~Had wrested from her hands
 71    26|          any cavalier,~He would by force of arms the maid obtain;~
 72    26|          Tartar king, renowned for force,~With greater puissance
 73    26|         for the blow was with huge force designed)~Little his shield,
 74    26|      menace nor yet counsel are~Of force to drive this folly from
 75    26|           accord between us now in force;~When I with thee shall
 76    26|         from Rogero severed him by force;~That (it was Vivian) in
 77    26|         her satisfaction prove his force.~To leave their quarrel
 78    27|      shattered walls have felt its force,~Throughout his mansion
 79    27|      blazed forth anew.~ ~ XXX~The force of the redoubted Rodomont,~
 80    27|             LVI~And asks had he by force or treaty won,~And when
 81    27|            monarch would do ill to force~Even-handed Justice from
 82    28|         Love, who left him not the force~To wake her, lest to know
 83    29|            water shall appear;~And force himself, meanwhile, to do
 84    29|        know no where, and who used force alone;~That utmost force,
 85    29|           force alone;~That utmost force, to which this earthly ball~
 86    29|            vigour fraught,~-- That force exceeding every force beside --~
 87    29|         That force exceeding every force beside --~Tost him so hight,
 88    29|            with clenched fist, and force which nought can meet,~--
 89    29|         And fruit, he every one by force opprest.~One by his hand
 90    30|         XXXIV~"But if the love you force yourself to show,~Be in
 91    30|         swain.~To you is known the force of either brand,~And known
 92    30|        either brand,~And known the force of either warrior's hand.~ ~
 93    30|           wary wise,~And broke its force and vigour ere it lit;~Its
 94    30|         and vigour ere it lit;~Its force and vigour broke: for he,
 95    30|         weak post and with unequal force~King Agramant the Christian
 96    31|           foremost, and of seeming force, the peer,~Young Richardetto
 97    31|            of the sable weed,~With force so fell, that he the youth
 98    31|            him with such desperate force.~When his lord sees him
 99    31|       array;~And (knowing well his force and mighty thew)~Received
100    31|          upon that paynim crew~The force of Vivian and of Aldigier.~
101    31|            he, for courage and for force,~With any warrior in the
102    31|       matched with me mistrust thy force,~(And that thou wert ill
103    31|         Gradasso, one to one.~Much force, much daring, and much skill
104    32|           remnant of his scattered force:~Since to unite his troops,
105    32|         But seeing him unhelped by force or prayer~Of any one amid
106    32|          all my powers by stronger force opprest.~Thus borne from
107    32|        train;~With such surpassing force his helmet smites~That spear,
108    33|            that from other they by force should bear,~In battle,
109    34|        which alone~He so by brutal force should make his own.~ ~
110    34|           love and service, not by force of arms.~ ~ XXXII~"So promised
111    34|         threatens high,~By love or force the monarch shall comply.~ ~
112    35|          knight, that equals me in force,~I pray thee bid the Moorish
113    36|       found,~The youth prepared by force to part the two;~Their poniards
114    37|            And gives her word such force, a second sun~Seems in our
115    37|         Devised to make her his by force of hand;~Armed, and in silence,
116    37|          hide;~And they who can to force ascribe the blame,~Extinguish
117    38|        when on its road~The Nubian force should march, Astolpho rose,~
118    39|             Broke in some sort its force, that stake accurst~Had
119    39|             That squadrons of such force the billows plow:~Nor would
120    40|            and haste, some helpful force~Of him our mighty pastor
121    40|            Nor to encounter such a force believed,~But would, if '
122    40|         blown~Assault with furious force Biserta's town.~ ~ XV~Washed
123    40|            sceptre, in such mighty force,~Will make them war upon
124    40|      evermore in peril it is good,~Force should have Counsel in his
125    40|        hand,~Which him for love or force should thence convey.~Already
126    40|           hand he knew;~That where force is not, little profits prayer.~
127    41|       Should have abated, gathered force anew.~Lo! a bare rock, ahead,
128    41|            warrior rows,~Hoping by force thereof to win the shore;~
129    41|           Gradasso seem of greater force.~ ~ LXX~Baiardo shocked

132    43|       church whilere,~By that rare force, which now extinct remained.~
133    44|           free will Rinaldo cannot force.~ ~ XXXIX~Silent stands
134    44|         thee?~And could thy father force thee him to take,~Though
135    44|            take,~If left alive, by force or love the maid,~Resolved
136    44| Constantine,~With all the empire's force his host to line.~ ~ LXXX~

138    45|           Because none weened such force was in the spear,~Nor that
139    45|         But simply to their proper force, was due~The praise that
140    45|        combat fierce and fell~Such force and quickness by the stripling
141    45|         since the knight~I had not force to take nor yet to slay;~

148    46|         rise,~Who foils his foe by force, and not despite;~So vainly
