Canto

 1     1|      prudent emperor reft the prize.~ ~ VIII~For bold Orlando
 2     1|     compel thee to forego~The prize, and do my will in thy despite,~
 3     1|   more to thy renown.~A noble prize were good Orlando's casque;~
 4     1|    spoiler's hand to crop the prize,~Forfeits her worth in every
 5     1|      good Anglante's lord the prize forbore,~Nor seized the
 6     1|   more~Him to enjoy so fair a prize invite.~To imitate that
 7     2|    weft;~To leave thee such a prize were foul misdeed;~And horse
 8     2|       once in Paris place his prize~The lady never more shall
 9     2|    soaring, laid~Hands on his prize, and snatched her from below.~
10     2|    the necromancer's helpless prize.~ ~ LVI~"LIke carbuncle,
11     2|   Where every thing is lost I prize below.~But you would climb
12     3|    might undetected make some prize;~Nor ever lets the knave
13     4|       beauteous women makes a prize,~Who, to their mischief,
14     4| waxing wroth, or weary of her prize,~She bites, and at a snap
15     4|    deed shall gain a glorious prize,~The sweetest flower of
16     7|      away what he was used to prize.~ ~ LXXII~Rogero thus, when
17     8|    father's arms.~ ~ LXII~Oh! prize too dear, oh! too illustrious
18     8|    indeed, to ravening wolf a prize,~Without thy faithful Roland'
19     9|     What he had taken, of the prize possest;~For he still held
20    10|       taken, more esteems the prize;~And only hurries after
21    10|     beach the maid became the prize~Of the rapacious crew, above
22    11|       how of pirates made the prize,~They bore her from the
23    11|      let Helen rest!~No other prize I seek, of this possest";~ ~
24    12|  stretched forth his hand the prize to gain.~For so it was,
25    12|     before,~Had born away the prize: hence turned his steed.~
26    12|   would not for his grief the prize forbear;~His grief for loss
27    12|    That the false Saracen the prize possest,~Long time the Spanish
28    13|     rivalry,~Which best shall prize the virtues' goodly train,~
29    14|     The Tartar, joying in the prize possest,~Which he by chance
30    14|      now, but certain, of his prize,~Deemed that the lovely
31    14| knowing yet she was another's prize.~If he had, -- then, --
32    15|   from the smith conveyed the prize,~Wanting to take young Chloris
33    15|       thief cannot retake the prize.~ ~ LXXXIV~That fool, who
34    17|      her whom he had made his prize,~And force her to the cavern
35    17|     LXXXII~A suit of arms was prize of the assay,~Presented
36    17|       of might:~The tourney's prize he sees, with much disdain,~
37    17|       other gifts, beside the prize,~Rewarded for the victory,
38    18|    And knew already where the prize to seek.~-- But her I leave,
39    18| travelling with the tourney's prize,~Displayed before his horse
40    18|    should worthily reward and prize;~So that he, night and morning,
41    18|    more regard takes down the prize.~ ~ CXI~And throwing some
42    18|      To Virtue, worthy better prize to wear.~Now have the arms,
43    18|     which the honour due,~And prize was Sansonnet's; since from
44    18|       alive, thy holy studies prize."~ ~ CLXXXV~At the youth'
45    18|  Expecting thus some spoil or prize to gain,~They, every one,
46    20|      rest thee merry with thy prize!~ ~ CXXIII~"But would thou
47    20|       tilt with thee for this prize of thine.~Or fair or foul,
48    23|      but to gain the promised prize; --~She to seek out the
49    23|   Suffered to part, of such a prize possest;~But would endure,
50    24|   wings, whom Love has made a prize;~For love, in fine, is nought
51    24|    garden, and so laments the prize~Foregone, she weeps for
52    24|       abandon thee, to whom a prize~I know not, my sad fate
53    24|       than rest, which others prize,~The stirring battle; and
54    25|      be rewarded -- with what prize~Thou canst demand -- for
55    26|          XXVI~The conqueror's prize remained both field and
56    26|    thought the damsel was his prize, and hied~Thither, where
57    26|   would retrieve the ravished prize.~And, were she in Mount
58    27|        III~Had he some little prize for counsel stayed,~(We
59    28|    and all of you that ladies prize,~Afford not, for the love
60    30|    champions' contest for the prize,~A crowd which neither sees
61    30|    waited round~Weened he the prize and vaunt had borne away.~
62    31|       and love, whose worth~I prize above all dwellers' upon
63    32|    daughter best deserves the prize,~And vouch as she in might
64    33|      me sore,~That thinks the prize by me will be foregone.~
65    34|    Should for his valour duly prize his heart.~ ~ XVII~"He came
66    34|    whatever else they highest prize.~Astrologers' and sophists'
67    35|    little distance they their prize convey.~ ~ XIV~When they
68    36| prevent the youth and win the prize.~ ~ XVII~She leapt upon
69    37|        made prisoner with his prize,~By the rapacious stripling,
70    38|       such a sovereign joy, a prize so high~No silver and no
71    39|  plain,~Had watched so rich a prize throughout the day;~And,
72    40|     most of all,~Who love and prize the gentle Brandimart,~Hearing,
73    40|      hopes Gradasso shall his prize restore;~Moved also by Almontes'
74    41|      leap, and vaulted on his prize.~This hand the bridle grasped,
75    42|      Thou hast more ground to prize and hold her dear~Than one,
76    43|    all Italy wouldst bear the prize."~ ~ LVI~So saying, in his
77    43|      that mankind most highly prize~Is that which triumphs after
78    43|     be bought~By payment of a prize which costeth nought.~ ~
79    43|   dome, like others, hath its prize;~If not in gold and silver,
80    46|  finds, and yields to him his prize:~Informed of all -- already
81    46| possess;~Far more than mine I prize thy happiness.~ ~ XXXVII~"
82    46|   hold her dear,~If that fair prize some happier mortal drew,~
83    46|     other is so worthy of the prize?~-- Should she by him that
84    46|   borne the witch.~The costly prize from Constantine she bore,~
85    46|   that unfading bay;~The only prize he cannot give away.~ ~
