  1   Int|         consequences if his two best knights kill each other
  2   Int| whichever of the two fights the best against the heathen; he
  3     1|       should protect the lilies best in fight.~ ~ XLVII~The warrior
  4     1|        but that which likes him best:~For one sign of the afflicted
  5     2|         or damsel fair assorts:~Best proved by valiant deeds:
  6     2|       their walls.~And what may best annoy the foes, and suit~
  7     3|     grandson, comes behind; the best~Of Italy, with arms and
  8     3|    reposes in the cave,~And the best part in talk with Merlin
  9     3|      scan,~In conference, which best might make appear~The rugged
 10     3|        well as he, and lies her best:~And changes sex and sect,
 11     6|       warrior's grief.~ ~ LV~As best he could, he strove to soothe
 12     7|       such perfect symmetry,~As best to feign the industrious
 13     7|        ear,~What secret pleases best; to knight and dame~A fair
 14     7|        the others chosen as the best.~ ~ XXIII~And when of comfits
 15     7|      councils, would pursue the best.~ ~ XXXVIII~With this intention,
 16     7|  consumed his fairest years and best,~In long inaction, afterwards
 17     7|        costliest odours and the best;~And soft and amorous all
 18     8| rippling waves her horse,~Where best the moistened sand the palfrey
 19    10|      perfumes; as how fashioned best,~Your thoughts may tower
 20    10|       Here, there, as liked him best, with docile flight,~Returning,
 21    10|       in tavern every night,~As best as can, through his capacious
 22    10|        orc. What this resembled best,~But a huge, writhing mass,
 23    10|     counsel took, and 'twas the best,~With other arms the monster
 24    11|         a mare,~Which liked her best, of all that herd's increase.~
 25    11|    before,~Distant and near, as best they can, offend.~At such
 26    12|     Pursued the missing maid as best he might.~ ~ IV~Through
 27    12|         not which with her will best accord,~The Count Orlando
 28    12|       and naked sword,~As might best shelter to his head afford.~ ~
 29    12|       opportune and pleased her best.~After much country seen,
 30    13|      worthiest in the world and best.~ ~ VIII~"In beauty and
 31    13|     their weary course~Ever, as best she may, with sweet discourse:~ ~
 32    13|    hence befall.~ ~ LVI~"Oh! my best guide." exclaimed the damsel
 33    13|         splendid rivalry,~Which best shall prize the virtues'
 34    14|      hears the king's petition,~Best of the seraphs he; who spreads
 35    14|        on his way, where he may best alight,~With the intent
 36    16|      traitor whom she loved the best.~While both the lovers hid
 37    16|   fourth division I believe was best,~Which, under Isolier, to
 38    16|         and count,~Who do their best Zerbino to remount.~ ~ LXV~
 39    17|      why is Byzantium, with the best~And fairest portion of the
 40    17|        ten others chosen as the best;~And levelling at the buckler
 41    17| remained Seleucia's knight,~The best of all the other seven at
 42    17|    Assists him in his scheme as best she can.~ ~ CVII~Whether
 43    17|         discreet;~And deemed it best for them at once to go,~
 44    18|    enmity and fierce affray~The best of Agramant's besieging
 45    18|        he moves, and tries~What best he deems their courage may
 46    18|         thought to do,~I to the best on earth have done in you.~ ~
 47    18|         if this mode or that be best~To have them, anxious to
 48    18|         two,~And bold Marphisa, best of that array,~Like faithful
 49    18|      their part.~One clears the best bower anchor: one is good~
 50    18|         endeavour to retire, as best be can;~Who will no little
 51    18|        retreat.~ ~ CLIX~But the best portion neither signal knew,~
 52    19|       swain,~Although, amid the best, by Fame arrayed:~Nor brooked
 53    19|       which he fed,~Him, as the best, and biggest, and most rare,~
 54    19|     heart with everything which best would please,~As thine I
 55    19|      Marphisa bids consigns the best,~And the other takes himself:
 56    20|       at my choice, who are the best~And fairest damsels in this
 57    20|        warriors so approved the best,~Were made partakers of
 58    20| comrades to exhort,~To do their best set forth in silent wise,~
 59    20|      other lure which likes him best;~As readily Zerbino to the
 60    21|       how my brother's love may best be bought.~ ~ XVI~"But not
 61    21|         what way~The knight can best with vengeance be pursued.~
 62    21|   breast,~Ransacks for what may best the occasion suit,~And sifts
 63    21|     time for thinking what were best.~He, lest more doubt of
 64    22|        all things fortunate the best:~In that the hippogryph
 65    22|         herself, what liked him best.~He willed the whole emprize
 66    23|        to be flown,~That he, as best he can, will make him light.~
 67    23|       on the plain,~Who, at her best, Astolpho's armour tied,~
 68    23|      Astolpho's armour tied,~As best he might, and laid on Rabicane;~
 69    23|       not how thither she might best repair.~The churl had of
 70    23|      among the choicest and the best.~Ere yet aware of her, the
 71    23|      weened he might the paynim best~Encounter, thitherward his
 72    23|       versed in many languages, best read~Was in this speech;
 73    24|      dispose of him as liked me best.~ ~ XXVII~"Him would I neither
 74    24|      here avail; since all that best~Moves a hard heart, Sir
 75    24|        a doe,~Where'er the road best footing does afford.~And
 76    24|      seek to hide themselves as best they may:~At length a cavalier
 77    25|          or judge what promised best.~The courier he dismist,
 78    25|        who was angered sore, as best he cou'd,~Sought to avenge
 79    26|         prove upon me, which is best in fight,~With lance or
 80    26|       and himself, the Moor,~As best he can, a combat does maintain~
 81    26|     appear how much it had been best~For thee forthwith to have
 82    27|       for the most part reasons best~Upon a sudden motion, and
 83    27|      flame.~Brandimart does his best, and when 'tis done,~Yields
 84    27|       in order due;~And, as the best resolve, at last decreed,~
 85    27|       of his foe,~ ~ CIV~As his best lore, at length the monarch

 89    28|      our own discern,~I hold it best that we to them return.'~ ~
 90    28|         world is glorified;~And best by Isabel the cavalier~Believed
 91    29|        contended,~And still, as best he could, the dame defended.~ ~
 92    29|         all are ingrates at the best,~Nor is in all an ounce
 93    30|   sleight he has assaid:~-- How best to manage sword and shield
 94    30|     king's physician in his art best read;~Who, having seen the

110    35|      two is schooled in warfare best,~If what has chanced to
111    36|       by surprise:~Nay, did her best the encounter to withstand;~
