Canto

  1     1|       breast was pent~A reckless fire which struggled for a vent).~ ~
  2     1|      change for ice their former fire.~Rinaldo drank the first,
  3     2|    glance and eyes more red than fire,~Then either falls to bites,
  4     2|  Case-hardened in the stream and fire of Styx.~ ~ XLIII~"Each
  5     3|          I scheme?~Since fiercer fire for such illustrious end,~
  6     3|         the giants sank in penal fire.~Yet should you instruments,
  7     3|         the promise of his early fire)~If such a hope of thine
  8     4|       sill,~Pots, with perpetual fire and secret, burned.~The
  9     4|         of night.~Hence death by fire will be the damsel's due,~
 10     4|      must a gentle damsel die by fire,~Because she with a lover'
 11     5|      unknown, which sentences to fire~The miserable dame, or damsel,
 12     6|      Struggles, tormented by the fire beneath;~And, till its prisoned
 13     8|          in the courser lies;~As fire sometimes will hide its
 14     8|    breast;~And fanned the secret fire, which through the day~(
 15     9|         iron round,~Touches with fire a vent, discerned with pain;~

 17     9|          new arms, with tube and fire purveyed;~Which, at his
 18    10|        fancies are;~Like a straw fire their every appetite.~So
 19    10|         arms he wears are all on fire.~ ~ XXXVI~While to the warrior
 20    10|          them would he slake the fire.~ ~ CXV~Now here, now there,
 21    11|          As torch to torch gives fire, and lights increase,~Until

 24    12|          noble casque, is all on fire:~ ~ LV~And in opinion with
 25    12|        In the mid cave, beside a fire was seen~A gentle maid of
 26    13|    falling from the pan~Into the fire beneath, but verify.~'Tis
 27    14|     quiet to exhale such amorous fire.~ ~  LVII~Doralice he consoled
 28    14|          mid the paynims go,~And fire and flame in their encampment
 29    14|          Kindling and scattering fire on either side.~ ~ LXXXVI~"
 30    14|            CXVII~'Tis thus, 'mid fire and ruin, all assay~To mount
 31    14|       water and with weeds,~'Mid fire and stone, and arbalests,
 32    16|         those limbs the ravening fire so fed,~Was never sight
 33    16|         the rout,~So warred with fire and sword, if at his post,~
 34    16|       city wastes with sword and fire,~Before whose vengeful fury
 35    16|           ere he espy~The raging fire, concealed from none beside~
 36    17|         Darts his three tongues, fire flashing from his eyes;~
 37    17|          himself i' the midst of fire.~ ~ XCII~With burning heart,
 38    18|      thunder and the lightning's fire~Fly coupled, such his vengeance
 39    18|          undestroyed by sword or fire;~ ~ XXV~And him so sorely
 40    18|     tinder spread,~And the quick fire was in a moment blown:~This
 41    18|        Heaven, to swallow all in fire, would sunder.~ ~ CXLII~
 42    19|       and by little warmed, took fire.~ ~ XXVII~The shepherd dwelt,

 44    20|     driven~Make havoc dread with fire and murderous brand,~Leaving
 45    20|   prepare;~Then give the town to fire, and on their bed~Of earth
 46    20|          They see, now near, the fire's encircling light,~Which
 47    20|     pressed,~Her in the midst of fire he would have sought;~But

 56    23|         Was flushed with amorous fire, from foot to head.~ ~ LXV~
 57    23|          small spark so fierce a fire,~She burnt all over, restless
