Canto

  1     1|       faulchion to that peerless prey:~Else by long toil I see
  2     2|         Rogero, nigh becomes the prey~Of Pinabel, who drops the
  3     2|      would not be that Rinaldo's prey,~Rinaldo loathed by her
  4     2|    brought him to his unexpected prey;~Twice foiled in his endeavour:
  5     2| Ascending to his den, the lovely prey,~What time he snatched my
  6     2|         And plunged his helpless prey into the deep.~"And thus,"
  7     4|    blinding hood, and points her prey.~ ~ XLVII~When her Rogero
  8     4|        courser should become the prey~Of the first traveller,
  9     5|      Among all other animals who prey~On earth, or who unite in
 10     6|       spread nets to catch their prey;~One wets his arrows in
 11     6|         long poisonous teeth her prey to tear,~And scratches with
 12     7|       then the stripling was her prey,~Who in the fairy saw such
 13     7|     enchantress, erst to grief a prey,~Changes it all to hope:
 14     8|        which teemed with certain prey;~And rode a hack which simple
 15     8|        Then glad Rogero leaves a prey to sleep.~ ~ XII~In the
 16     8|       greedy elder's unresisting prey.~ ~ XLIX~ (Stanza XLIX untranslated
 17     8|           upon every strand they prey.~ ~ LX~With frigate and
 18     8|        dear, oh! too illustrious prey!~To glut so barbarous and
 19     8|         make a hideous monster's prey~The beauty, for which Agrican
 20     8|      till the lot shall of their prey dispose,~Her prisoned in
 21     9|          little strife, his easy prey:~Persuaded by his outward
 22     9|         new deceit,~Me, when his prey, the tyrant will not cheat.~ ~
 23     9|          fowler, bent on greater prey,~Wisely preserves alive
 24     9|        as hunter watches for his prey,~In forest, with armed dogs
 25    10|       hope in other on the bosom prey:~In hers Desire demands
 26    10|         vessels, to the flames a prey,~But with one bark escaped
 27    10|  Destined to be a monster's evil prey:~ ~ XCIV~There but that
 28    11|          the paladin, Astolpho's prey.~With this she Malagigi'
 29    12|        gain intent, his glorious prey;~And with such swiftness
 30    13|      assured, no less on him did prey~The flame, that in his constant
 31    13|       that he might overtake his prey;~And many a prayer and glozing
 32    14|     cruel paynim, cheated of his prey,~Ill bore that any, from
 33    15|  Astolpho, who beholds his bulky prey~Fall bodily, drives thither
 34    15|    Ashore or under water, and to prey,~For food, on human bodies;
 35    15|        who had made the dame his prey,~And take such vengeance
 36    16|        heathen makes his flock a prey.~A fiend from air to-day
 37    17|         Goth, and Hun a bleeding prey.~ ~ III~What shall I of
 38    17|       orc, and those he made his prey,~Then he, without more thought,
 39    17|         greedy orc will make his prey.~ ~  XLIII~" `I have no
 40    17|       was brought, the monster's prey.~ ~ LI~" `For though to
 41    17|      harness had been strowed,~A prey to whosoever past the road.~ ~
 42    18|         as a mightier champion's prey;~For rarely man escapes
 43    18|        none, nor he to chase his prey delayed.~To whom, "He cast
 44    18|         escape well charged with prey,~To save themselves they
 45    20|     behold, nor seek to gain the prey."~To her the prince, "I
 46    21|        her bosom had been long a prey,~What he would be unable
 47    22|          there the courser, as a prey,~To the first stranger who
 48    22|     steed the thief had made his prey.~ ~ XCVIII~She would return
 49    23|       desire and greedy will yet prey~To see the Child; whom she
 50    23|    consumes her, she will be the prey,~Nor see Rogero more, nor
 51    23|      stands, but covets sore the prey;~Eyes and surveys him, and
 52    23|        him render his ill-gotten prey.~Yet more; I seek the champion
 53    23| well-nigh lost all feeling; so a prey~Wholly was he to that o'
 54    24|       the lilies are well-nigh a prey.~ ~ ~ I~Let him make haste
 55    24|          oxen slew, his helpless prey;~And well the courser ran
 56    24|       savage fare,~Swallowed the prey with all its skin and hair.~ ~
 57    24|         or pigeon, or such other prey,~Seeing towards her from
 58    25|        devour alive his helpless prey.~ ~ LXI~" `Upon the losel,
 59    26|          remained both field and prey;~Nor was there footman left
 60    26|        from Rodomont redeems the prey,~And with a due revenge
 61    26|         s ardour to retrieve the prey,~And upon Rodomont's avenge
 62    26|          would forego,~As on his prey to waste a passing blow.~ ~
 63    26|      deem, will be their certain prey.~Yet not so rudely thence
 64    27|         descried the long-sought prey.~To Paris he repaired again,
 65    27|     Afric -- to Rogero, from his prey,~Gave Balisarda and the
 66    27|     wills that I should be their prey.~ ~ CXXIV~Yet will I make
 67    28|        angry passions make their prey.'~The king is pleased to
 68    28|           since thou art others' prey.~'Twas my design, having
 69    29|  stretched his arms, he rent his prey in twain.~ ~ LVI~Even in
 70    29|      inches short had fallen his prey,~Upon her would have pounced
 71    31|     faulchion; fierce Gradasso's prey,~When slain in combat Mandricardo
 72    32|          at will transport their prey;~So Rabican with Bradamant,
 73    33|        the pontiff to his foes a prey.~ ~ LVI~"Lautrec the monarch
 74    33|         judgement, guided to his prey,~But his rare fortune, heard
 75    34|      yield my person to him as a prey~I with intention to Alcestes
 76    34|          ever chased the panting prey.~ ~ LXXIII~He, that with
 77    34|         moth, in this our planet prey.~Here countless vows, here
 78    35|        the good Frontino makes a prey.~She next from Arles defies
 79    35|        flight pursue;~And to the prey all hurry, when from high~
 80    35|          beak or talon seize the prey:~Yet little distance they
 81    35|        load, which is Oblivion's prey.~ ~ XXII~"But as the joyful
 82    36|         galleys bore,~Laden with prey, to your paternal shore;~ ~
 83    36|          more to jealous fears a prey,~O Bradamant, because Rogero
 84    37|          yielded up themselves a prey~To that uncurbed desire,
 85    37|       Because he will not lose a prey so dear;~And while to cure
 86    37|        wolf, who, laden with his prey,~Is homeward to his secret
 87    38|       Nubia he, rejoicing in his prey,~Returns; and with that
 88    39|     laying hands upon the costly prey,~Had sore lamented and had
 89    40|          laden with their mighty prey,~From that unhappy city'
 90    40|   barbarians' fleet, his captive prey.~You could not there have
 91    41|       for the devouring dragon's prey,~Ye all mankind would drag
 92    42|         nerves, and sinews are a prey~To burning love; Rinaldo
 93    43|     elder's, fall some monster's prey.~ ~ V~Not without reason
 94    43|          are to countless ills a prey.~ ~ C~" `So hated as the
 95    43|         yields herself a willing prey.~ ~ CXVI~The fruits of love
 96    43|   tempted to forego~Her faith, a prey was she to other wight.~
 97    44|      made that warrior's wit his prey;~And what he wills by Roland
 98    45|      choose but yield myself thy prey.~ ~ XXXV~"But I, Rogero,
 99    45|       whom his sorrows press and prey,~Who loathes his life, immersed
100    46|         the other went.~ ~ XXI~A prey to deep and stubborn grief,
101    46|         the treasure, amid other prey.~Augustus and Tiberius heired
