Canto

  1     1|    Remember, pagan, when thine arm laid low~The brother of Angelica.
  2     1|           were in combat prostrate laid~By the tried valour of a
  3     2|       beneath a spreading beech is laid,~And from a bough the shield
  4     2|     thought and rose; and soaring, laid~Hands on his prize, and
  5     3|           wizard spread.~Living he laid him there, and lies there
  6     3|      contain the damsel, prostrate laid;~With the full measure of
  7     4|      sooner on the grassy mead~Had laid her head, than wheeling
  8     4|       battles fought, on earth had laid:~ ~ XXVI~And ran to bind
  9     4|            in him, her prowess has laid low,~A venerable sire, with
 10     5|        beat,~At the third trumpet, laid his lance in rest;~As well
 11     7|            game:~In mid career she laid her lance in rest,~And made
 12     7|          an easy task; for she was laid~Among the grass and flowers,
 13     7|            man when he in earth is laid,~Would have been plucked
 14     7|        life would at her feet have laid,~If she had deemed they
 15     7|      forgets the place where it is laid,~Then, after many days,
 16     7|           armour, many days before~Laid by, again accoutred cap-a-pee.~
 17     8|        lady took some comfort, and laid by,~Emboldened by degrees,
 18     8|      restored their weary spirits; laid~These upon stones and upon
 19     9|      waited not till he in bed was laid:~But raised a hatchet, and
 20    10|           her lover was beside her laid)~No further thoughts, no
 21    10|           weary limbs, beside them laid.'~ ~ XXXIX~To hold the stirrup
 22    12|    grieving, and across the pommel laid;~She weeps and struggles,
 23    12|          entered, never doffed and laid aside:~For such to wear
 24    12|        Till he between two bridges laid him dead.~ ~  LXIII~Angelica
 25    14|           taught how Manilardo was laid low,~Alzirdo, and many others,
 26    14|            root of an old ash tree laid,~Bemoaned her: fast her
 27    14|            By these fear first was laid, and next the smart~Sheathed
 28    14|          two warriors and a damsel laid.~ ~ LXV~Now lofty Fancy,
 29    14|          chains across the channel laid.~But most of all, his prudent
 30    14|            idle, those of ours had laid~Snares in the inner moat,
 31    15|           him, like sumpter-nag he laid the load,~In triumph led,
 32    15|      Discern the ready supper duly laid~Fast by, where a refreshing
 33    16|           And, thence to rise not, laid the charger low,~Destined
 34    17|            are by his vengeful arm laid dead?"~Thus Charlemagne,
 35    17|       sword of knighthood had been laid,~To a fair joust, which
 36    17|          cavern, on the greensward laid,~That he might enter with
 37    17|            s youthful lord, by him laid low.~O'ercome with wonder
 38    18|       thirty dead about the waggon laid.~ ~ IV~Whither fear drives,
 39    18|       Gryphon, all thought of pity laid aside,~Threats not nor speaks,
 40    18|          Nor would depart until he laid it low.~But he saw one along
 41    18| discharging, at each blow,~He ever laid at least one horseman low.~ ~
 42    18|            upon earth Dorchino had laid low,~Pierced through the
 43    18|       paced,~His sword and rancour laid aside, the peer~Him humbly
 44    18|           such a puissant wight, I laid a scheme~Her by address
 45    18|           with it; and on the sand~Laid Gryphon first; next Aquilant
 46    18|          on earth at one encounter laid,~Their drooping heads, opprest
 47    18|             while on the champaign laid~Were eighty thousand of
 48    19|          earth had seen his master laid.~He, with the monarch, buried
 49    19|       spears in rest nine warriors laid,~When the trump sounded,
 50    19|    thousand cavaliers on earth had laid;~And never had herself been
 51    20|        Which from thy lofty saddle laid thee low.~ ~ CXXX~"She,
 52    21|           he on earth has lifeless laid,~And she, with the assistance
 53    22|            They, without fail, had laid Astolpho dead.~ ~ XXI~But
 54    22|           lance alone thy foes are laid~On earth, why should I band
 55    23|        tied,~As best he might, and laid on Rabicane;~She next behind
 56    23|     through;~Left it; on Durindana laid his hand,~And broke into
 57    23|            his heart-core had been laid,~Waxed cold, and some deal
 58    23|          good Orlando's valour had laid dead:~Though afterwards
 59    23|         amid thousands by thy hand laid dead,~Scarce one alive fled
 60    24|        Intended to the damsel, was laid low;~But that which followed,
 61    24|         their quarters had already laid;~And, save quick succour
 62    24|        King Mandricardo's had been laid:~Hence, thither, in good
 63    25|          save that the command~Was laid upon them by their lady
 64    25|             and piles of arms were laid.~ ~ VIII~Because the troop
 65    26|          so to partnership in arms laid claim~With those three warriors,
 66    26|      Marphisa was; that on Zerbino laid~The task to bear about,
 67    26|           world all fear aside has laid;~And, in amendment of their
 68    26|            hear~Of others, who had laid that monster dead,~Which
 69    26|           entreaty, these for once laid down --~She deigned to seem
 70    26|          good knight on earth have laid.~-- Give me," she cried, "
 71    26|        Charles his yoke had nearly laid.~ ~ XCII~Arrived, Rogero
 72    26|       stalk, his head on earth had laid,~Had he his trusty Balisarda
 73    27|        rather in a lake of crimson laid,~Horribly weltering in their
 74    27| disembarked from loaded barge,~Was laid on sumpter-horse or ready
 75    28|       beheld a brighter ray:~There laid his eye, and saw, what he
 76    28|      believed that all asleep were laid;~And how by him her chamber
 77    28|      appear~The beauteous dame, he laid the thought aside~Of hatred
 78    29|     preacher's chin his right-hand laid,~And whatsoe'er he grasped,
 79    29|            madman's furious stroke laid low.~In the same breath
 80    30|             he, sorely pained,~Was laid, wherein a month or more
 81    31|     matched, for weal or woe,~They laid their fury and their pride
 82    32|          not, when by biting steel laid low.~A habit well according
 83    32|           the paynims had to Paris laid.~ ~ L~-- Cadurci, and Cahors
 84    32|           that plenteous board was laid,~(None fairer was in all
 85    33|        works, the warlike duke has laid;~ ~ XXII~And the French
 86    33|           by the malignant Aethiop laid,~Transfixt with deadly dart
 87    33|        before had on the champaign laid,~Cast from their horses
 88    34|        from the vase have drained;~Laid up, and treasured various
 89    34|         fleeces that erewhile were laid~Upon the reel, and culled
 90    36|        brief verses who therein is laid.~But of those lines, methinks,
 91    36|            Risa open to the foe he laid,~By whom all scathe was
 92    37|      victorious lance on earth had laid,~How, in a town not far
 93    37|           have the greenwood trees laid low~Their leafy honours
 94    37|            punishment~To him, that laid her cherished husband low.~
 95    38|          evil brother traitorously laid low.~Me my sad mother carried
 96    38|      reposed the wearied wind, was laid~Quaintly and softly by the
 97    38|          round Biserta placed,~And laid the better part of Africk
 98    40|            from you,~And burnt and laid her chiefest city low.~And
 99    41|            her beauteous bowers he laid;~And how from him Brunello
100    41|            interval;~For they have laid in rest their lances keen:~
101    41|         lady's deed, but on Rogero laid)~As well as Bertolagi's,
102    43|             who so her spells hath laid,~I see them stoop directly
103    43|          fairy Manto, that whilere~Laid the first stone of this
104    43|         Argia's pride of heart was laid;~And so much less the dame
105    43|         last he called on whom was laid~The ill hest, but who had
106    43|            thereon, at least, have laid;~And, ere amid the blessed
107    43|           less fair,~Cushions were laid, with jewels shining bright.~
108    43|          Orlando; till he could be laid~In sepulchre of costlier
109    43|        good mariners, the bark was laid~Safely beside the rugged
110    44|          Than any knight that e'er laid lance in rest:~But much
111    44|        they see their sovereign is laid low,~And everywhere that
112    44|       breast and flank the warrior laid;~Smote hand, and arm, and
113    45|         foemen ever upon earth had laid:~Because none weened such
