Canto

  1     2|         trust, yon daring spoiler slain,~Give my lost lady to my
  2     2|           gaol to force,~Or to be slain, or in his prison stied.~
  3     3|       shall Ezelin be quelled and slain.~ ~  XXXIII~"Fierce Ezelin,
  4     3|        town retrieved, and victor slain:~Since in the rescued city
  5     3|          and struggle through the slain,~'Mid crowded fields, which
  6     5|       scattered that the peer~Had slain himself for grief; nor was
  7     6|          his brand,~And will have slain me with his very hand."~ ~
  8     8|          broke the palisade,~Some slain, some maimed; then t'wards
  9     8|         in lieu~Of the fair lady, slain upon the shore:~He, if he
 10     8|        first and all those others slain, who fed,~All a devouring
 11     8|      Amostantes bore,~Whom he had slain in fight some time before.~ ~
 12     9|         many might the count have slain,~Yet never bared his puissant
 13     9|          most fair.~Reckoning one slain a-day, you thus may well~
 14     9|        device, my gentle brethren slain;~The first the shot in our
 15     9|         to hazard all content,~-- Slain, burnt alive, to let them
 16     9|    chattels burnt, were doomed or slain:~And he had killed Bireno,
 17     9|         my father and my brethren slain;~Through him, the little
 18     9|          I am killed, the duke be slain.~ ~ LIV~"Warrior to went
 19     9|       conveyed:~Thus I, when I am slain, shall die content,~Who
 20     9|           lord, though I~Be after slain, shall by his order die."~ ~
 21     9|           had so many and so many slain:~Which here he deems would
 22     9|           out, who by the push is slain,~Since the clogged weapon
 23    10|         brethren and my sire were slain,~And every other good from
 24    10|       shield,~Or in the strife be slain, or basely yield":~ ~ L~
 25    11|   vengeance for the cruel monster slain,~Whence he had glory hoped,
 26    11|        through,~The islanders are slain, and everwhere~The walls
 27    12|         In truth, you covet to be slain by me.~Nor when I chase
 28    12|      scarce capacious of the many slain.~For neither targe nor head-piece
 29    13|        naked, fled,~And some were slain; while of the helpless band,~
 30    13|           thigh.~Whence some were slain outright, and maimed the
 31    14|        Agramant, by single Roland slain;~Hence furious Mandricardo,
 32    14|            Countless had been the slain, whose bodies fed~The ravening
 33    14|         who weep their Martasino, slain~By the avenging sword of
 34    14|           would all thy camp have slain,~If thine assembled host
 35    14|           and often side by side,~Slain by the truncheon, horse
 36    15|          rescued, and your foemen slain.~ ~ III~This was the Paynim
 37    15|       heard, was prisoner made or slain outright.~ ~ LXV~For at
 38    16|          wight, beside his foeman slain,~Or little distant, prostrate
 39    16|     viewed, to avenge his brother slain,~He charged, intent the
 40    16|        Than, 'mid those thousands slain, for all the rest.~And smote
 41    16|        Sir Soridane;~Who had been slain as well amid the throng,~
 42    17|     Lucina above all the rest;~If slain or prisoner kept. With kindly
 43    17|      cannot hinder her from being slain.~` "Twas no small joy 'mid
 44    17|         catholic are hight --~Why slain by you Christ's people do
 45    18|         the ground with thousands slain or more;~And all the while,
 46    18|   mistress taken, by one man were slain.~ ~  XXXIV~Her flint and
 47    18|         Rinaldo, in his mood,~Has slain more enemies than I can
 48    18|         thrust, has bold Balastro slain,~That Finaduro's helm has
 49    18|          wounded, the four others slain.~ ~ XLVIII~Yet will his
 50    18|        and seek him out among the slain;~And haply God may will
 51    18|          grief, should'st thou be slain."~ ~ CLXXII~And thus resolved,
 52    19|           they must choose, -- be slain,~Or captives, one and all,
 53    19|        valiant warrior of the men~Slain in the tourney, consort
 54    20|       brute beast in sacrifice be slain.'~ ~ XLII~"The gentle maid,
 55    20|         he in the temple shall be slain,~Shall have the choice,
 56    20|         his arm successively were slain.~ ~ LVII~"He to new proof
 57    20|     sometimes is found) he oft is slain~In the first charge: nor,
 58    20|           Nor, that he should, if slain, those martial peers~Deliver
 59    20|           be enslaved, and she be slain.~ ~ LXIX~On the other hand,
 60    20|       fear:~Sansonnet's horse was slain, and that which bore~Marphisa:
 61    21|        were encountering, who had slain~Her only brother and her
 62    21|      contendest for her, thou art slain;~For such their portion
 63    21|       erthrew.~ ~ XI~Thinking him slain who only lay amazed,~By
 64    21|         woman showed,~And to have slain her in his wrath went near,~
 65    21|           of his friend so rashly slain;~By this to purchase, to
 66    21|           when he in his mood~Had slain his mother and Aegysthus
 67    22|     rather would be taken, rather slain,~Than he should be assailed
 68    22|       hear,~But learn not who had slain the cavalier.~ ~  XCVII~
 69    23|      where faithless Pinnabel was slain.~ ~ XXXIX~Duke Aymon's daughter
 70    23|      denounce by whom his son was slain.~ ~ XLVIII~From voice to
 71    23|     cavalier, unless you would be slain."~-- "Who deals such mighty
 72    23|  treachery,~I wot, nor could have slain in other wise."~The count
 73    23|         is dead and under ground,~Slain by that most ungrateful
 74    24|         afterwards by Mandricardo slain.~Isabel weeps; by Rodomont
 75    24|    charging him in disarray, were slain;~And this experiment right
 76    24|       neither loose, nor yet have slain,~But, as thou seest, in
 77    24|      flocks in greenwood-holt are slain.~ ~ C~Of those two infidels,
 78    24|         sword; to see his courser slain~He storms all over fired
 79    25|         hundred in a thought were slain.~The sword Rogero from his
 80    25|       comfort goes,~Must needs be slain or taken by his foes.~ ~
 81    26|     paynim leader in a thought is slain;~And with him, pierced by
 82    26|        those of proudest port~Had slain or maimed throughout this
 83    26|      hands of whom that Beast was slain,~Which had so many smiling
 84    26|          have the hideous monster slain:~But these are few compared
 85    29|      opprest.~One by his hand was slain, one foully shent;~Seldom
 86    30|          Tartar king is by Rogero slain:~For whom fair Bradamant,
 87    30|           steeds~-- Their masters slain -- he presses for his needs.~ ~
 88    30|        Were Mandricardo or Rogero slain;~A thing by cruel Destiny
 89    30|         was good Rogero well nigh slain.~By one of those fell blows
 90    30|           been the Tartar king or slain;~So had that blow offended
 91    30|           living and the dead man slain,~The favourers of those
 92    30|         by Troyano was thy father slain;~And yet Troyano's son,
 93    31|            When his lord sees him slain, he leaves his seat,~And
 94    31|      fierce Gradasso's prey,~When slain in combat Mandricardo lay.~ ~
 95    31|        himself to tell the pagans slain.~ ~ LXXX~King Agramant in
 96    31|           taken in that press, or slain;~And vouched if thence he
 97    31|           affray,~-- Should he be slain, or else for mercy sue,~
 98    32|          lay thee low,~He to have slain thee haply may repent;~But,
 99    32|          thou should'st by him be slain,~Who dooms thee living to
100    33|   Consumed by famine, or by fever slain;~And that short joy, long
101    33|       kings in two fierce battles slain,~Manfred and Conradine,
102    33|           different cities dwell.~Slain on the rolling of the vesper-bell."~ ~
103    33|        illustrious warriors to be slain."~ ~ LXXIV~When they by
104    35|          you the choicest victim, slain by me;~ ~ XLIII~"And dearer
105    36|          by her brother's hand be slain.~Rogero and Marphisa mine,
106    36|         barriers, was the warrior slain?~And who it was had issued
107    36|       monarch's children might be slain.~Are you alive, and lives
108    37|         And Marganor is by Ulania slain.~ ~ ~ I~If, as in seeking
109    37|           that had their husbands slain,~Fathers and sons and brethren, --
110    37|      example of his elder brother slain,~Thinks to bear off the
111    37|           throng.~ ~ LVI~"Olindro slain, they led his lady fair~
112    37|        hundred maimed, and thirty slain.~ ~ LXXX~"He of his vassals
113    37| transgression were~Many, and many slain in cruel sort.~A statute
114    37|        Any wend thither, they are slain outright.~ ~ LXXXIV~"Those
115    37|          whom the sister had been slain,~The mother, or the daughter,
116    38|          destroyed and sacked and slain;~And that Branzardo, who
117    38|           not think Rogero can be slain;~For this, 'twould seem,
118    39|         No number is there to the slain or end.~ ~ XIX~But, putting
119    39|     squadrons' head;~And with the slain filled all that champaign;
120    39|        unequal parts (for, of the slain,~By far more Saracens were
121    40|         of dying, and himself had slain,~But that Sobrino's words
122    40|         few sword-strokes to have slain.~Yet never when the Dane
123    41|        good Orlando and we others slain,~Banded with him to conquer
124    41|         as Bertolagi's, should be slain~By false Maganza's ill and
125    41|      shows by whom the knight was slain.~If he most raged or grieved
126    42|      hundred swords, unarmed, was slain.~ ~ VI~To end; I say that
127    42|        saw, extended on the sand,~Slain by the stroke of fierce
128    43|          reptile he had found and slain,~When so Adonio heard the
129    43|      staff the reptile would have slain.~ ~ XCVI~"Arriving here,
130    43|           could not by his arm be slain.~ ~ CII~" `Because thou
131    43|       glorious deed had done;~Had slain those paynim kings in the
132    43|         the battle Brandimart was slain.~Such love, such faith endeared
133    43|        and true, there here liest slain,~And who dost live in heaven
134    44|       done.~ ~ XXVII~Of the kings slain upon the paynim part,~The
135    44|       that, with his kindred crew~Slain by my hand that unjust elder
136    44|          behold so good a warrior slain.~ ~ XCII~As baby, albeit
137    45|          moiety of the Greeks was slain;~And knew that by a cavalier
138    45|          routed would she be, but slain.~ ~ XXXIV~"I am like miser,
139    45|       Hope, whom Fear hath almost slain.~ ~ XXXVI~"As when the sun
140    45|           rescued; and the gaoler slain~Is left in that dark dungeon
141    45|       fast!~ ~ XC~"Though she had slain, had tortured me before~
142    45|         or her own good faulchion slain:~For not to live appears
143    46|           by Bradamant nor taken, slain,~Nor forced beyond the barriers
144    46|      cause for grief in Bertolage~Slain by their foemen and Sir
