Canto

  1     1|       and bathed with sweat and blood~Who lately had withdrawn
  2     2|         had stilled the rage~Of blood, and spake him feeble and
  3     2|         charger, in his heat of blood,~Forces whate'er his eager
  4     2|     follow a fair virgin of his blood.~ ~ XXXI~I speak of that
  5     2|    faithless son.~He, where the blood ran foul through all degrees,~
  6     2|   houses came,~And oft in civil blood their hands embrued.~And
  7     3|        ring.~ ~ XVII~"The noble blood derived from ancient Troy,~
  8     3|         And his good sword with blood of Pontier base;~The mighty
  9     3|      whom his princely father's blood was spilt.~ ~ XXV~"By him
 10     3|    leagued no less by love than blood;~Who shall be all that Leda'
 11     3|         the campaign with their blood,~By Santern, Po, and Zaniolus'
 12     3|     Spain.~Paunch-deep in human blood shall steeds advance~In
 13     3|        wretched pair are of thy blood,~So many prevailing pity
 14     4|         But deems it foul, with blood of man to stain~Unarmed
 15     4|       an arrow drank her virgin blood.~'Twere long to tell who
 16     4|      defence, be come of gentle blood.~ ~ LXI~"But if within a
 17     4|       deluge with that damsel's blood the green.~She to delay
 18     5|    bathed by senseless ire with blood?~ ~ III~Not simply a rank
 19     5|     cooled one whit her boiling blood.~ ~ XXI~"This Polinesso
 20    10|          Who means with Moorish blood to paint it red."~ ~ XC~
 21    11|         To-day, such streams of blood have changed its hue;~And
 22    11|  delayed,~Until by him Bireno's blood was spilt:~A punishment
 23    12|      except an aged peer,~Whose blood was chilled, but courage
 24    13|      behold the children of her blood~Wandering into the clutches
 25    14| approaching spied~Him foul with blood, and marked his felon cheer;~
 26    14|         To save the illustrious blood of Stordilane,~Ere the thief
 27    14|        from the wall of crimson blood.~ ~  CXXII~He drops the
 28    14|        to decline,~Like viper's blood or venom: now immersed~In
 29    15|        Of Arragon and Austria's blood I see~On the left bank of
 30    15|      befall me if I go,~Is I my blood shall with the others shed:~
 31    15|      And every ditch with human blood was red.~ ~ LI~Caligorant
 32    15|        away our errors with his blood.~ ~ XCV~They, at the entrance
 33    16|     alone, but of her flesh and blood,~Got by one father; -- and
 34    16|   impious king alone with human blood,~-- Lord of the impious
 35    16|     more of little vaunt,~Whose blood will form a lake ere day
 36    17|       Fattening his fields with blood. To pests like these~Our
 37    17|        to face~One of that very blood, that very race?~ ~ XV~"
 38    17|         troops, whom, ranked by blood and might,~The monarch formed,
 39    18|        anger and with thirst of blood:~And, as the thunder and
 40    18|         Her whelps as well will blood their greedy fang,~And,
 41    18|        At last all smeared with blood the paynim goes,~Safe from
 42    18|        push of spears. -- where blood is shed,~And death is dealt,
 43    18|     fear goes through~The heart blood of each trembling paynim
 44    18|     appears again.~Forth issued blood and soul, and from his sell~
 45    18|      for the works he made.~The blood in torrents ran the country
 46    18|      troop, by whom my master's blood was shed,~Medoro, ought
 47    18|      Saracen lopt off his head,~Blood issues from the tap-hole,
 48    19|         unsheath her claws, and blood her tushes bare,~Would natural
 49    19|        the sand~Tinged with his blood, and ready to expire,~And
 50    19|         to restrain~The crimson blood forth-welling, and of might~
 51    19|       youth was ebbing with his blood:~Which had the ground about
 52    20|         they wore.~Come of this blood, where Danube's waters,
 53    20|     drew her origin from Minos' blood.~ ~ XXV~"Youngest and fairest
 54    20|  measure~I of the glories of my blood might share~If I united
 55    20|       would inflame his angered blood,~She in reply, "It was a
 56    21|         dip his hand in woman's blood.~ ~ IX~This and yet more
 57    21|      spilling more of thine ill blood.' The peer,~This said, commands
 58    23|       From whom such streams of blood profusely flow,~As were
 59    23|       In Clermont and Maganza's blood; a feud~With injuries, and
 60    23|      wroth that, in his heat of blood,~The Tartar little thought
 61    24|        from his body could draw blood;~For iron smote the impassive
 62    24|       the lovers seen a drop of blood,~They might have well believed
 63    24|    extends;~Of little depth: of blood a tepid tide~To his feet
 64    24|         LXXI~He ever wastes his blood; his energies~Fail, though
 65    25|      price of the most precious blood in France.~ ~ LXXVI~"One,
 66    26|        pain,~So him his heat of blood, disdain, and ire,~To venge
 67    27|      from the skies,~Which ever blood and fire and ravage sought,~
 68    27|        the penalty of flesh and blood;~So, by the teeth of dog,
 69    27|        To drench with Christian blood the thirsty plain.~ ~ XXIX~
 70    30|   Reason, giving way to heat of blood,~Herself from hasty choler
 71    30|      back,~Out sprang the tepid blood of crimson stain;~Hence
 72    30|    sound.~ ~ LXIII~The spouting blood of either cavalier~Their
 73    30|      his deeds ennobled Aymon's blood,~One day at noon, with none
 74    32|   generous hands~With such base blood, and loosed the losel's
 75    32|   branch, or dried~Is the green blood, that was it's parent's
 76    33|       more with water than with blood,~Tanarus purples wide Po'
 77    33|        from Avalo's illustrious blood."~ ~ XXV~The warder of the
 78    33|     host.~ ~ XLVII~"Both of one blood and of one nest they are;~
 79    33|       foe,~All over bathed with blood of hostile vein.~But valour
 80    34|  despite, supplied;~For the red blood should issue from my breast~
 81    37|        swell,~Thirsts for man's blood, but thirsts for woman's
 82    37|      woman's more~Than wolf for blood of lambs; and bids expel~
 83    38|   ravaged fields with Christian blood;~And yet with greater rancour
 84    38|     spare the constant waste of blood,~Which his, and countless
 85    39|     river drown;~And those with blood the thirsty fallows steep.~
 86    40|   rivers may run red with human blood,~In suchlike combat, in
 87    40|       violent hand~Dipt deep in blood and plunder, in a thought,~
 88    40|     bodies of the paynim horde,~Blood issued from so many a gaping
 89    40|      disastrous battle, Dudon's blood~(Well in the lineage of
 90    41|    cheek and froze her youthful blood;~And this new sense of fear
 91    41|   Rather than wrong my princely blood, will die.~ ~ XLV~"Ye may
 92    41|       his case;~Now to Rogero's blood, a future race.~ ~ LXI~The
 93    41|         Sericane.~From whom his blood till how had never streamed~
 94    41|    wholly strained and wet with blood,~And that he spills so much
 95    41|       bitter blow,~Has made the blood from his right should flow.~ ~
 96    42|        field about him red with blood appears,~His helmet cleft
 97    42|        Warlike Sobrino, of much blood bereaved,~Which from his
 98    42|       fast from him the crimson blood had drained.~ ~  XIX~The
 99    43|        rise, to hail the gentle blood,~The love, the courtesy
100    43|        husband cries,~Nor noble blood, nor fortune, are enow~To
101    44|       Will equal in illustrious blood below,~A race may spring,
102    44|       For valour or nobility of blood,~Better than his; nay, none
103    44|       champaign ran the reeking blood,~As to the valley foams
104    45|       battle, gory~With hostile blood, nor yet despair, for spurns~
105    46|       and all of Grecian, Latin blood,~Or barbarous, all that
106    46|        genius, tied~By love and blood, lo! Pico and Pio true;~
107    46|    tidings went.~Hence the warm blood, that stagnated about~Her
108    46|  forbore;~And, where he saw the blood most freely spring,~And
109    46|     from a font,~Streams of red blood the crimsoned herbage float.~
