Canto

 1   Int|       King Rodomonte of Sarzia, a Holy War between Pagans and Christians
 2     3|        wait~On worthy spirit in a holy place,~She prays with eager
 3     6|       cell:~And housed within the holy father's shed,~There secretly
 4     7|       weight~To bend thy purpose, holy souls, and bright,~Which
 5     8|           charms~Discovers in the holy father's arms.~ ~ LXII~Oh!
 6     8|          by the Moorish lance~The holy empire and great name of
 7     9|          his return, in wedlock's holy band.~ ~ XXV~"Bireno hardly
 8    10|        the shore.~To Logistilla's holy realm addressed,~Rogero
 9    10|      Where he should duly witness holy lore,~And beauty infinite
10    11| superstition stung,~Esteemed such holy deed a work profane;~And
11    14|        wherein Troyano's son~They holy empire in his wrath defies,~
12    14|        oft, by foes offended,~Thy holy church and vicars have defended.~ ~
13    14|               LXXIII~So spake the holy emperor aloud,~In humbleness
14    14|       thoughts, upon this day~The holy consistory had bid mould~
15    15|            The imperial flags and holy cross I know,~Fixed on the
16    15|     safety guide."~"I thank thee, holy father, for thy say,~(To
17    15|         erst incarnate dwelt, the holy places,~Ere he to cherished
18    15|         upon his neck convey.~The Holy Land a mountain-summit showed,~
19    16|           day frustrate see their holy vows;~ ~ XXXV~-- "I say,
20    16|    jealousy or sloth, so good~And holy, enterprise should ill succeed,~
21    16|      slays,~And costly house, and holy temple burns:~While Charles
22    17|            For furtherance of his holy faith and true,~Against
23    18|        After Sir Gryphon left the holy shrine,~Through Solyma in
24    18|          note,~And many, from the Holy Land remote.~ ~ LXXI~One
25    18|          said), the peer~Over the Holy Land as ruler set:~He with
26    18|     devoutly cries:~ ~ CLXXXIV~"O holy goddess! whom our fathers
27    18|         lies,~Who did, alive, thy holy studies prize."~ ~ CLXXXV~
28    19|       venturous foot before.~They holy ceremonies interpose,~Somedeal
29    19|         such is named, and to the holy tomb.~Meanwhile, above the
30    21|           inextricable, fold;~Nor holy Faith, it seems, except
31    24|          make him guardian of his holy faith.~ ~ XI~He would have
32    24|           her view.~ ~ LXXXIX~The holy man next made the damsel
33    24|   monastery; here~Of ladies was a holy sisterhood;~And, hither
34    25|        story tedious to recite)~A holy man, to heal the damsel'
35    26|       brought foul scandal on the HOLY FAITH.~ ~ XXXIII~Whate'er
36    27|        mingled train,~Beneath the holy flag of Christ arraid,~He
37    27|         Until he has achieved his holy end.~ ~ XXXVII~Again he
38    28|           That a gemmed cross and holy reliques bore;~Which one,
39    28|        bitter scorn;~Since on the holy water he had sworn.~ ~
40    28|        her plight,~She would with holy works -- this world forgone --~
41    29|    plighted faith, and chaste and holy name,~(Things hardly known,
42    33|           That he might free that holy heritage:~But as some deeds
43    33|         thee, in my royal hold,~A holy temple, made of marble,
44    34|       name disclosed,~That he THE HOLY GOSPEL, had composed;~ ~
45    34|          silvery cloud.~ ~ LX~The holy ancients to a chamber lead,~
46    34|           river ran, conducts his holy guide.~ ~ LXXXVIII~Filled
47    35|      appear,~And of the birds and holy place, from whence~The nymph
48    35|             XXVI~"Augustus not so holy and benign~Was as great
49    37|    brothers wholly gained.~In the holy orders of fair chivalry~
50    37|         he to that lady bore.~The holy, hospitable laws he chose~
51    37|           mass and prayer;~In the holy temple making her amends,~
52    37|        spouse.~ ~ LXIV~" `But the holy priest, while this shall
53    37|        two fair pillars rear.~The holy office there, with solemn
54    37|          there.~ ~ LXIX~"When the holy obsequies at last were o'
55    37|        first shall swear~Upon the holy wafer, that he still~To
56    38|          guide.~Astolpho from the holy realm descends;~Through
57    38|        doctrine by their care~And holy skill may be that martial
58    38|         his reverend guide,~Those holy regions left the cavalier;~
59    38|         kneeling in the dust,~His holy master had implored, in
60    38|       books; that, carried by one holy man,~-- Him of our law --
61    38|        for nine months within thy holy womb,~While aye thy virgin
62    38|           saying, in his hand the holy book~Charles held, and fixed
63    39|         town:~So has that monarch holy faith at heart.~'Tis hence,
64    39|        the grace given him by his holy guide~I told erewhile, and
65    40|      ensignry,~Suspended from the holy temple's wall,~And fifteen
66    40|           done~Vigil and vow, and holy prayer and fast,~Kin, friends,
67    40|           sever, use.~ ~ XIII~The holy priests within Biserta's
68    40|           s breast;~And as Rogero holy Dudon spied~Approach on
69    41|            Which, there to live a holy life, alone,~For him the
70    41|            of ailments clear,~The holy man had reached his eightieth
71    42|          joy in heart~At death so holy, and is certified~That called
72    43|         priestly train,~And other holy orisons were said,~In a
73    43|         they will go~To seek that holy man to God so dear,~But
74    43|          Orlando so,~That for the holy place he bids him steer;~
75    43|           isle; thence sought the holy cell;~The holy cell of that
76    43|         sought the holy cell;~The holy cell of that same hermit
77    43|         that no unguents hath the holy wight,~Nor is in other human
78    43|          Father, and the Son, and Holy Ghost,~On Oliviero bade
79    43|          grew,~As soon as he that holy monk espied~The manifest
80    43|        contrite heart demands~Our holy rite of baptism at his hands.~ ~
81    44|      roared,~His farewell to that holy master made,~Who taught
82    44|          remained,~As soon as the holy place Astolpho gained.~ ~
