Canto

 1     1|        dead.~ ~ II~In the same strain of Roland will I tell~Things
 2     2|      dwarf guide two of goodly strain;~Whose coming added hope
 3     3|   lives the spirit of immortal strain;~Lodged in the enchanter'
 4     3|        of the fifth Azo of thy strain,~By whom shall Ezelin be
 5     3|      mind, and faith without a strain.~All else is Fortune's in
 6     4|  fearful peril, soar so high a strain,~She stood long space amazed,
 7     4|       feat in arms, of British strain;~And throng from distant
 8     5|       my lover with all labour strain,~And industry, Geneura's
 9     6|     his purpose every nerve to strain,~Lest empire over him Alcina
10     6|        awhile delay~Till other strain the issue of the fray.~ ~
11     8|       verse of less lugubrious strain,~Till I my wearied spirit
12     8|     hear from far the mournful strain,~And the sad shepherd weep
13     9|        be it my care,~In other strain, the tidings to report;~
14     9|      If you to hear that other strain resort.~ ~ ~
15    10|       sleep and waking, made a strain~To reach her loved Bireno,
16    11|        verdant stem her dulcet strain,~So in her beauteous tears
17    12|    rest, for here 'tis time my strain should end.~ ~ ~
18    13|     worthiest consort she will strain,~In honoured and in splendid
19    13|       this finish my prophetic strain,~-- All blessings on her
20    13|     Richarda first shall be my strain,~Mirror of chastity and
21    13|    with your leave, till other strain, delay~The order of the
22    14|       was no Saracen of bolder strain,~Of all the chiefs who Moorish
23    15|      be proof against a single strain;~With that, by ten good
24    17|     mid those groves,~Joyfully strain our awnings overhead;~And
25    17|   drums' and trumpets' echoing strain~Assemble all the town within
26    18|   their gloomy veil above them strain,~Nor suffer sun or star
27    18|     him bold, and of a valiant strain,~Who with Orlando's ensign
28    19|         Await till the ensuing strain to hear.~ ~
29    20|   heard mention of my race and strain.~Not Pontus, Aethiopia,
30    20|      What followed the ensuing strain will say.~ ~
31    22|        did not let the courser strain~At speed, or he had from
32    22|      and his whole illustrious strain,~But for her pleasure would
33    22|        roll of eye and girlish strain,~With her each night the
34    22|      fire was lit; but we must strain~By path so foul and crooked,
35    23|     and others she in mournful strain~Utters, and broods within
36    23|      her eye and eyelid sorely strain,~So hard she gazed, his
37    23|    straw, too haughty were the strain":~And charged with that
38    23|    from him, now would closely strain;~And waxed so wroth that,
39    23|      kind salutes, in friendly strain,~Fair leaves had taken of
40    23|        icy hand his heart-core strain.~With mind and eyes close
41    24|      head and hand, in haughty strain,~That to repentance he will
42    25|      ears there was no sweeter strain~That what in some sort on
43    25|  returning light with gladsome strain,~Sir Aldigier (who wished
44    27| princesses, and dames of noble strain,~From Arragon, Granada,
45    27|     the Tartar's tent an angry strain~Is heard, and cries which
46    27|        rapacious eagle wont to strain~The pullet, in her talons
47    27|       if one appeared of purer strain,~'Twas that she better hid
48    28|        him, and come of humble strain.~ ~ XXII~"To imagine his
49    28|    melancholy man; nor music's strain~One jot diminishes his ceaseless
50    28|       wearisome might seem the strain,~If I upon this theme dilated
51    29|       he conquers are of pagan strain,~He is content to take their
52    29|    here and there, was seen to strain,~Brimfull of pride, and
53    29|       them as wide as he could strain,~So stretched his arms,
54    30|     what I said in other angry strain.~ ~ II~But like sick man
55    30|      more of this: parforce my strain returns~To her that vainly
56    33|     The hall, whereof in other strain I told,~With volume sacred
57    33|       all would ask too long a strain)~In beauteous colours and
58    33|        who hears the deafening strain~May not in panic terror
59    34|       both his eyes behoved to strain,~If he would view Earth'
60    35|     time would last my tedious strain,~Orlando might expect his
61    35|  daughter thanked in courteous strain,~And to her hand consigned
62    35|   people over wall and rampart strain;~Nor child nor elder was
63    36|       be, all hearts of gentle strain~Still cannot choose but
64    36|     was theirs, and what their strain;~And how he died; by banded
65    36|       makes lament.~But I this strain would gladly finish here,~
66    36|  report,~If ye to hear another strain resort.~ ~ ~
67    37|       Mars and Muses, of their strain~Descended, who the mighty
68    37|        next is blown~The noble strain, your honour's noble theme;~
69    37|       many a Rome;~In his high strain he promises as well,~Your
70    38|  courteous ladies, who unto my strain~Kind audience lend -- I
71    38|        first began in grateful strain:~"Unconquered Caesar, glorious
72    38|     casque that (as in loftier strain is sung)~Cased Hector's
73    41|       the shore;~As I in other strain rehearsed before;~ ~ XXV~
74    42|       the scroll): for tuneful strain, the pair~A very Linus and
75    42|        as mighty wonder at the strain~As that wherewith Amphrysus
76    42|      Celio Calcagnine in lofty strain~Her glories and fair name
77    42|      sing her praise in humble strain,~As he that only without
78    43| honoured ensign of his ancient strain;~In memory that their primal
79    43|       whilere~To you in former strain by me was said),~Homeward
80    43|    others will appear~In other strain, if you that strain will
81    43|      other strain, if you that strain will hear.~ ~
82    44|      with himself, and in such strain~Oftentimes the afflicted
83    44|     What shall by men in other strain be versed.~ ~
84    46|     that courtesy of so high a strain~Was never done nor will
