Canto

 1     1|        said:~"Thou traitor to thy word, thou perjured Moor,~Why
 2     1|          That knight~Am I; -- thy word was plighted then to throw~
 3     5|     warranted by sight as well as word,~How ill his love was cherished
 4     5|         engaged by writing and by word,~She swore she would not
 5     5|      conclusion, vowed that every word~So said, he would avouch
 6     6|       better part,~To strive with word and deed, till thou requite~
 7     6|          salmon, salpouth, at her word,~And mullet hurry through
 8     6|         nor day, to other spake a word.~ ~ XLIX~"Why touch my wounds,
 9     7|           two lovers plight~Their word, to meet together on that
10     8|          to assist it even with a word.~ ~ LXIV~Oppressed with
11     9|          sware,~And had my solemn word already plight~That me to
12     9|            But plights his solemn word, that better aid~She should
13    10|           let none make a lover's word her creed.~Mindless that
14    10|           a sound from bell, --~A word, were fit for action, night
15    11|        tears,~That, if I said the word, I err not, I,~Saying he
16    12|            Next thence, without a word to either went,~And from
17    13|          traitor; and by deed and word~Withstood the purpose of
18    14|     paladine~And preachers of the word, and barons brave,~With
19    16|         suavity~The action to the word, sore weeping, cried:~"Dear
20    17|          king Norandino spake the word,~And bade them enter, and
21    17|         spare,~Nor leave unsaid a word of filthy lore;~And him
22    18|        Departing, deigns to his a word to say.~He hurries with
23    18|           your impress bear;~Your word suffices me, by me more
24    18|        the wretches time to say a word.~Sir Turpin in his story
25    19|          this while he hears,~And word and the tread of foemen,
26    20|        for him her father: she in word,~As well as in a kindling
27    20|        Each other's face, nor any word is spoken.~But when the
28    21|       charge must go,~He spake no word; and thus in silent mode~
29    21|        stand~They idle long; from word they pass to deed;~And having
30    21|           Who, ere she in reply a word will say,~Is vainly more
31    22|           flowers gay."~Without a word exchanged, the warlike two~
32    23|         her lover dear;~And not a word could draw-forth from her
33    24|      through France conveyed;~Who word to simple knight and captain
34    25|      other lovers used; but never word~Have I found written of
35    25|      earth beneath me by a simple word.'~ ~ LXIII~"Treasure I covet
36    25|         LXXXIX~And, as he erst by word, he now explained~Anew by
37    26|          fury blown,~By the first word with which that king offends.~"
38    26|       would see, according to his word,~If he can conquer me with
39    27|        Spain!" is the assailants' word,~Whom at all points the
40    27|            with prayer and kingly word,~Had willingly appeased
41    27|           far and wide,~In act or word, with either part to side.~ ~
42    27|      forsooth, whilere I said the word,~I will not what I once
43    27|         to me should utter such a word,~He should deem quickly,
44    27|         stand forth and speak the word;~For I on him will prove,
45    27|           rebellious to his royal word,~Nor would consent that
46    27|        own -- in his despite;~Nor word escaped the melancholy knight.~ ~
47    28|       doer ne'er, through deed or word,~Might guess his injured
48    28|          Rodomont listened, nor a word replied,~Until the landlord'
49    28|       Sinned against chastity, in word or deed:~But him with impious
50    29|      Already threatening her with word and act,~And now devoid
51    29|        wilt my chastity molest~In word or deed." So spake that
52    29|           down to us the wondrous word.~ ~ LVII~These and more
53    30|          laughing, answered not a word,~But left the fool and pricked
54    30|        thought~That ill his royal word could be repealed;~Yet Mandricardo
55    30|     further interposed, in act or word,~Where round the palisade
56    30|          of treaty will he hear a word:~From bed upspringing, "
57    30|        damsel should be said,~Who word and letter to Mount Alban
58    30|           view.~ ~ LXXXI~Rogero's word was pledged for his return~
59    31| Sansonetto, and the rest,~Without word spoken, and with stealthy
60    31|        credited fair Flordelice's word,~From whom more wondrous
61    32|          courser round, without a word,~Inflamed with jealousy
62    33|       sage Merlin, with prophetic word,~To Pharamond such mighty
63    35|         Dating from THE INCARNATE WORD, the year~Shall marked my
64    35|      without the power to speak a word,~He wheeled his courser,
65    35|       Rogero"; and pronounced the word with pain.~And, in so saying,
66    35|              LXXVII~She spoke the word in all simplicity,~Which
67    35|      cried,~"Return, and keep thy word with me as bound."~Shamed,
68    37|           inspires;~And gives her word such force, a second sun~
69    37|         Now seeks the wretch with word and deed to grieve;~As,
70    38|          On me forthwith, if I my word forego!~And may it me and
71    38|        pledges first his knightly word,~Should his king mar, or
72    39|          broken faith and forfeit word~Fall upon Rodomont! take
73    39|           fight, but pledge their word~-- Yea, put aside all hostile
74    39|          He wondering marked, but word he spake to none;~And when
75    41|         better ease, to him God's word~And mysteries of our faith
76    42|         light, if, questioning my word,~Thou on this point hast
77    42|       waged,~Or he shall keep the word, which he engaged.~ ~ XXVIII~
78    42|       with disdain;~His tongue no word is able to untie;~His mouth
79    42|          reminded, to maintain my word,~'Tis time meseems (said
80    43|          that tree,~And God's own word, by eating, disobeyed,~Fell
81    43|         be he, persuaded by whose word,~Alas! I of the fortune
82    43|           so far away, no further word~By me was ever of that woman
83    43|        erpast the Alps; for never word~Of this neighbouring France,
84    43|         circle wheels:~Ice at our word takes fire, and fire congeals.~ ~
85    43|           of thy fault by deed or word,~Nor me of mine, henceforward
86    43|          triumphs, she, without a word,~Without a hint to indicate
87    44|         ought forego his plighted word.~ ~ XXXVIII~Beatrice who
88    45|            gesture, and in joyful word.~He waited till Rogero sleeping
89    45|        has hent,~And to uplift by word and action tries)~That he
90    45|     departing thence, he spake no word~Save to the squire who journeyed
91    45|        Leo ill avail.~Then by his word will he abide; and though~
92    45|          what so can be done; her word belie;~Anger friends, kindred,
93    45|           I believe, his plighted word.~ ~ CXI~"What now you say
