  1     1|             of lusty grass.~ ~ XXXVII~Behold! at hand a thicket she surveys~
  2     1|        semblance of a valiant knight,~Behold a warrior threads the forest
  3     1|           seeks the Saracen to cheer,~Behold a messenger with pouch and
  4     2|           wonted service to his lord.~Behold Rinaldo then in fury riding,~
  5     3|             thy generous race.~In him behold who shall distain the mead,~
  6     3|          Spoleto's ducal crown enjoy.~Behold the princely phantom that
  7     3|               Sicilia's king.~ ~  XL~"Behold in yonder friendly group
  8     5|          ready succour, when I cried.~Behold! what wages love's poor
  9     6|            whale.~ ~ XXXVII~"There we behold a mighty whale, of size~
 10     6|             with me repair,~You shall behold the wonders of my chace,~
 11     7|         Melissa's lore~Advised, he to behold the fay returned,~And that
 12     8|              and hare to chase,~If he behold the quarry choose one side,~
 13     9|             his safety could be done, behold,~Short of my own destruction,
 14    10|                  when first you shall behold the fay;~But better contemplate
 15    10|              lion 'twixt two unicorns behold~Upon the standard of the
 16    10|              of Rothsay he!~ ~ LXXXV~"Behold the Earl of Huntley's flag
 17    10|               was heard.~ ~ C~Lo! and behold! the unmeasured-beast appears,~
 18    11|              the champion aid,~But to behold the cruel strife stood nigh.~
 19    12|                Thou brutish sot, as I behold, is bare,~If thy late words
 20    12|             Now can his wretched eyes behold her more.~Blaspheming his
 21    13|            watery roar~To perish, nor behold Zerbino more.~ ~ XIX~"Though
 22    13|             father's reign,~She shall behold the children of her blood~
 23    13|            rolled,~United in Renata I behold.~ ~ LXXIII~" 'Twere long
 24    14|               France or Spain;~But to behold that cheek of lovely grain.~ ~
 25    15|                A marquis of Pescara I behold; --~A youth of Guasto next,
 26    16|           This cleft across, and that behold him hew,~From head to hips,
 27    16|              his fist,~At Oran's king behold Rinaldo dart.~Of bulk, and
 28    16|              vilely to so vile a foe?~Behold the promised trophies, spear
 29    17|              foe~Less strength in you behold than them? Your might~Upon
 30    17|              by fame to hear,~Than to behold him by approaching near.~ ~
 31    17|           enters on the trail.~We who behold him fly (a helpless rout),~
 32    17|                XLI~" `Of this you may behold the proof in me,~And all
 33    18|              man escapes his destiny.~Behold the good Rinaldo turns that
 34    19|               Those mountains -- they behold the subject main;~And keeping
 35    19|          trouble in the warriors true~Behold, nor yet of weariness, commend~
 36    19|               by this or other light,~Behold me prompt thy wishes to
 37    20|               blooming peer~Burned to behold so praised on every part,~
 38    20|            fair a sight~Thou shouldst behold, nor seek to gain the prey."~
 39    21|            with new arts.~This while, behold! the castellain returned,~
 40    22|                   XLI~"I fled, not to behold such cruelty,~For they alive
 41    22|            can here afford to stay."~"Behold the man," that ancient made
 42    22|         tongue your oath evade."~" -- Behold! the arms; behold, with
 43    22|                     Behold! the arms; behold, with a new sell~And cloth,
 44    22|          goodly steed!" Rogero said,~"Behold with these, as well, the
 45    23|          martial maid;~Nor weening to behold her more, less thought~To
 46    23|               gazed, his movements to behold;~The day that he bore off,
 47    23|             in following slow~Both to behold thee, and to prove thy might;~
 48    23|           inside,~Couldst as without, behold me! I apart~Will lay me
 49    24|             bound the malefactor they behold.~ ~  XVIII~The two that
 50    24|               to her knight:~Saying: "Behold! the haughty Rodomont,~Unless
 51    26|             they upon two sorry jades behold,~I' the middle of that troop,
 52    27|               If I beyond these lines behold thee more."~ ~ XXXIX~Albeit
 53    27|           amid the train~Assembled to behold that fierce appeal,~Was
 54    27|            the other said,~Would fain behold that monarch's kingdom drowned~
 55    30|           rose upon the further side.~Behold! a mounted shepherd at the
 56    30|          would do what all would fain~Behold by the relenting warrior
 57    30|               my harassed mind~That I behold one fearful quarrel's close,~
 58    31|              she of mean condition to behold;~That in a snowy samyte
 59    31|              before;~And to Rinaldo: "Behold those! whom few~In valour
 60    31|         captive more content,~Than to behold him perish in the tide.~
 61    32|              should arrive, and say,~"Behold Rogero comes"; and oft ascended~
 62    32|               his visage, glorious to behold,~Unveils, emerging from
 63    32|               my equal sentence dare,~Behold my prompt, at such gainsayer'
 64    33|       imperial Maurice shall bestow.~"Behold him from the Mount of Jove

 68    33|                would the king detain.~Behold that valiant monarch couch
 69    33|     resplendent carbuncle," he said.~"Behold, deceived by faithless treaty,
 70    33|              routed foe,~Gonslavo you behold, the pride of Spain.~Fortune

 80    33|                perusing oft what they behold~Inscribed below the beauteous
 81    33|               And finally whatever we behold~Herewrought in iron, there
 82    33|               troop the viands bring.~Behold! a whizzing sound is heard
 83    33|              the beat of savage wing.~Behold! the band of harpies thither
 84    33|              spreads on other ground.~Behold, as wont, the harpy-squad
 85    37|             the martial damsels twain~Behold a pillar, standing in the
