  1     1|  dressed,~The succour which she sought he lent, and drew~His faulchion,
  2     1|       in the river's bed~Ferrau sought vainly, toiling long and
  3     1|      full bliss by pining lover sought.~To keep the king in play
  4     2|    XXXIII~Alone thenceforth she sought her lover (he~Was named
  5     2|       addressed~The knight, and sought the occasion of his woe.~
  6     2|     Made vain, the wily traitor sought to mend~His toils, and some
  7     2|        imprisoned in that hold,~Sought but the means to try the
  8     3|      wight that has its counsel sought.~ ~ XII~"Long days have
  9     4|         through various chances sought,~To whom we may communicate
 10     4|         life is by such treason sought,~Is chaste and spotless
 11     5|   knight of courteous lore,~Who sought our Scotland from a distant
 12     5|        time your bower by me is sought,~When in her bed Geneura
 13     5|     spring his secret snare,~He sought his rival on the appointed
 14     6|         But loathes what he had sought, on nearer sight;~So painful
 15     7|        to her reproof an answer sought:~Who on his little finger
 16     8|         ceaseless care, Orlando sought;~Now here, now there, the
 17     9|         knights errant, who had sought that shore:~ ~ XX~For hitherto,
 18     9|       am wed,~Who, when the sun sought his, would seek my bed.~ ~
 19     9|       of love and loyal homage, sought~The people one and all:
 20    10|        now here, now there, and sought anew;~Now either leg; but
 21    10|     That such a gentle lord had sought her rest,~Did much the prudent
 22    10|     weariness~Had eased, Rogero sought the prudent fay;~With him
 23    10|      Rogero, leaving Spain,~Had sought, in level line, the Indian
 24    10|        of a knight the occasion sought to know;~But from the griffin-horse
 25    11|      the vanished lady, whom he sought,~Of that ungrateful and
 26    11|     appears, when nigher her he sought:~Olympia she appears, and
 27    11|       All men should least have sought to do her wrong.~ ~  LXIV~
 28    11|      her were all the charms he sought.~ ~ LXXII~I do not think
 29    12|            IV~Through France he sought her, and will seek her through~
 30    12|      XXV~Now this, now that she sought with fruitless care,~Before
 31    12|       he Argalia's helm in vain~Sought in the brook; yet though
 32    12|       Spanish knight was vainly sought;~Nor Roland took the helmet
 33    12|      this foul Spaniard what he sought~Should gain, or I to his
 34    13|         of his restless passion sought.~ ~ X~"For different faith
 35    13|       they to violate my person sought;~Though nothing good or
 36    13|        he who was least injured sought to fly.~'Tis so sometimes,
 37    13|         their feet, yet vainly, sought;~For to the cavern's door
 38    13|     dame, in following them who sought~His life, till to the enchanted
 39    14|         other champion might be sought.~ ~ XXXIII~He of the squire
 40    14| Goodness, who in vain~Was never sought by faithful heart, an eye,~
 41    14|  brooded,~Where he, for whom he sought was used to dwell,~Who after
 42    15|       that, devouring those who sought to cross,~Them into dust
 43    15|      break its weakest mesh had sought,~Would have bestowed his
 44    15|         to an end,~The duke now sought the noble youths to stir,~(
 45    15|      the warlike three devoutly sought,~Intent on pardon and on
 46    15|    passion which he nursed,~And sought to banish her from his heart'
 47    16|    setting out anew, he Antioch sought.~ ~ VI~He nigh Damascus
 48    16|      the strength to fly aloof,~Sought safety not from house or
 49    16|      sort; and foot and cavalry~Sought Paris by those roads, which
 50    16|         to the battle speed.~He sought himself the river, where
 51    18|     that he is not the wight he sought:~ ~ LXXIX~And through that
 52    18|      his throat; then tied~(Not sought Martano with his foe to
 53    18|     content the injured warrior sought.~ ~ XCV~And he determined,
 54    18|     Because, parforce a-foot, I sought to stay~A robber, who had
 55    18|         Who had the year before sought Charles's court,~In medicine,
 56    20|          so hight the youth who sought that strand),~And all those
 57    20|     enchanted horn.~ ~ XCIV~One sought the sea, and one the mountain-top,~
 58    20|        in the forest drear,~Nor sought to make the lovely weft
 59    20|     midst of fire he would have sought;~But could not hurry more
 60    21|        thine own honour, what I sought of thee!~Now of so rigorous
 61    21|        she waited ere again she sought~The prisoner's tower, as
 62    21|        he erst by messenger had sought,~From me to-day has sued
 63    22|        succour might therein be sought.~He to the index turns,
 64    22|   unhappy plight,~Him, since he sought it, fully satisfied.~"Thou
 65    22|        the griding steel, which sought~The arm beneath, by this
 66    22|    Rogero stumbled upon what he sought;~For, in the middle of the
 67    23|         had mourned, and vainly sought~Through spacious France: '
 68    23|     would his match on earth be sought."~-- "Who tramples thus
 69    23|    faulchion is, which thou has sought,~Which shall be thine if
 70    23|          which he haughtily had sought?~'Twere forty to waste time
 71    23|       so he hoped, desired, and sought~To think) his lady would
 72    23|      CXV~With such vain hope he sought himself to cheat,~And manned
 73    23|     Having supt full of sorrow, sought his bed.~ ~ CXVII~The more
 74    23|      sun had broken thrice, and sought~His rest anew; nor ever

 76    24|         lost lover's footsteps, sought that place.~ ~ LIV~Her Brandimart
 77    24|     again,~From sea to sea, had sought her absent mate,~Through

 81    25|     Camilla and like Hyppolite,~Sought fame in battle-field, and
 82    25|         it dear,~-- If this had sought to keep -- with greater
 83    26|    Babel's king bade forge, who sought~To war on Heaven in his
 84    27|       blood and fire and ravage sought,~Guided them by that way
 85    27|     here and there, that damsel sought,~Nor here nor there, descried
 86    27|         had not interposed, and sought~With little wit their fury
 87    27|        horse was taken from him sought;~And this from first to
 88    28|       rack.~At home he lighted, sought his bed, and found~The consort
 89    28|   Inflamed and opened, which he sought to close.~He rests not night

104    34|     some cleansing stream, long sought in vain;~But found at length
105    34|    impious strife~The count has sought his faithful cousin's life.~ ~
106    34|         now of that the meaning sought;~Formed of swollen bladders
107    35|      tried a fall.~ ~ XXXIV~She sought one of an otter's nimbleness,~

121    39|     fires from which the refuge sought,~The fear of drowning hurries
122    41|        the bark a surer passage sought:~But the waves snapt and
123    41|         his wife should long be sought,~With weary womb, with heavy
