  1     1|           blows.~Through this two clear and murmuring rivers stray:~
  2     1|      streams their passage slowly clear,~Make music with the stones,
  3     2|        the pummel, to the ground;~Clear of the restless courser
  4     2|         amazed~And blinded by the clear and dazzling light.~I, too,
  5     2|           she deemed that all was clear,~Cried to the knight, "Repose
  6     3|           the truth should better clear;~And having compassed the
  7     3|          When the live spirit, in clear tones that thrill,~Addressed
  8     4|        our friends,~In this, less clear than clouded, mortal life,~
  9     5|         God will make the treason clear,~And show she was accused
 10     6|       rind:~ ~ XXVIII~And hence a clear, intelligible speech~Thus
 11     6|          would need the Child, to clear the field,~And to keep off
 12     7|         light of reason shines so clear.~And hence to you it is
 13     7|     slender arches rise above~Two clear black eyes, say suns of
 14     7|           damsel shows,~More than clear glass the lily or the rose.~ ~
 15     7|       false enchantment served to clear.~This too unmasked the charms
 16     8|          his sword Rogero drew~To clear the rabble, who his course
 17     8|           or nightly planet shed,~Clear water has the quivering
 18     9|       never my conditions make so clear,~As to assure me, that with
 19     9|         they put from land~With a clear sky and prosperous wind
 20     9|       when of the tidesway he was clear,~And in the deepest sea
 21    10|         she by so many proofs and clear,~Had made apparent to the
 22    11|           dimmed the light~Of the clear sun, so high the water flew.~
 23    11|          told the many proofs and clear~By which the dame's affection
 24    11|          symmetry,~The waist more clear than mirror's polished grain,~
 25    11|       there she was not, soon was clear,~But clear it was not if
 26    11|          not, soon was clear,~But clear it was not if she had been
 27    12|          hidden evermore;~But the clear flame betrayed the haunt
 28    12|         eyes with tears o'erflow,~Clear tokens of a heart oppressed
 29    13|       side,~Which round about the clear horizon troubled,~And stirred
 30    13|       that I have many threads to clear~In the great web I labour
 31    14|   pronounced to stand or flow,~So clear and limpid, that the cheerful
 32    15|           would the briny billows clear,~And strains so nimbly in
 33    15|      think, henceforth his way is clear.~So far an end does bold
 34    17|        this ourselves have made a clear assay,~As well as those
 35    17|     behoves his valour flame~More clear than light, or they, to
 36    17|   Descending from his place, bade clear the way;~And the huge squad
 37    17|      tower the beauteous gallery, clear~Beyond the city-wall, projected
 38    18|     Rodomont in twenty days would clear~The gathering crowd, united
 39    18|          in a suburb, of the city clear,~Are lodged, upon the day
 40    18|      guested.~ ~ CIV~And when the clear and lucid sun again~Its
 41    18|         them in conference, stood clear,~Listening, in silence,
 42    18|         the heavens, on all sides clear,~Vouch many days' fair weather.
 43    18|           Saracens than faithful, clear~The way, so reverenced is
 44    18|       splendor glistened yet more clear,~There where renowned Almontes'
 45    18|           burden he would fain be clear;~But, lest his being heard
 46    19|    Knowing how soon his horn will clear the strand,~When the scared
 47    19|      mournful hue o'erpowered the clear,~Was less inclined to smile,
 48    19|       light, could either foe see clear~Now to avoid the furious
 49    20|          succour of the sword,~To clear a passage through the cruel
 50    20|      assay~If with my bugle I can clear the way."~ ~ LXXXVIII~As
 51    20|     securer road the beldam hoar,~Clear of a spacious marish: as
 52    21|          grace divine my fame can clear --~My innocence unsullied
 53    21|       drug and poisonous, will be clear;~Nor deem it meet that you
 54    21|         else preserved his honour clear:~For when the dame was to
 55    22|           so many and many, it is clear~Right few of you are of
