 1     1|          other Christian captains taken,~And his pavilion in the
 2     1|      further on her way.~The lady taken, we repeat our claim~With
 3     2|       eyes; where Charlemagne had taken post,~With the sad remnant
 4     3|      hapless Castellain,~The city taken; but shall dearly pay;~His
 5     5|       duke, whom she refused,~Was taken by the damsel to her bed;~
 6     5|         For that another love had taken root~In her, whose every
 7     5|       Whence I foresaw, that if I taken were,~Too certain risque
 8     5|           from court;~And, were I taken, make him plainly see~How
 9     6|     without her dwelling, she~Had taken on the beach her lonely
10     6|   withstand,~When he the road had taken on his right,~Exclaimed, "
11     8|         reasoning,~Who would have taken thee in my despite?~Why
12     9|       still possessed,~The others taken which about it lay,~Was
13     9|        and his array,~Of the duke taken, and the victory won:~And
14     9|           those weapons!) I shall taken be.~So feared those weapons,
15     9|          others had been prisoner taken.~ ~ LXXXVIII~To a younger
16     9|       defence to bear~What he had taken, of the prize possest;~For
17    10|   mountain-height;~Nor, when 'tis taken, more esteems the prize;~
18    10|      escape the wild corsair,~Nor taken be, and after sold for slave!~
19    10|           troop around~Routed and taken, burnt or sunk, remains~
20    11|   island-crew~Attempt; in part as taken unaware,~In part that in
21    12|   willingly~The damsel would have taken for her guide;~Not that,
22    12|     discern,~Though haply she had taken each in turn.~ ~ XXXIV~And
23    13|        site,~And showed the order taken for the deed,~Which was
24    14|      column, by your valiant hand~Taken and kept entire, more praise
25    14|           Remain, some hurt, some taken in the fray;~And some to
26    15|          The nymph (it seems) was taken as she flew,~Where the great
27    17|      pressed~Of those the orc had taken on the shore;~And of Lucina
28    17|        all his court;~ ~ CXX~And, taken for the man whose crest
29    18|         the train,~Their mistress taken, by one man were slain.~ ~
30    18|         knight,~By whom he so was taken unawares,~Martan' turns
31    21|          Such fierce assault, was taken by the foe.~ ~ XXVII~" `
32    22|          Cheat~From Bradamant had taken by deceit.~ ~  LXXII~'Twas
33    22|          run;~And rather would be taken, rather slain,~Than he should
34    23|           strain,~Fair leaves had taken of the loving twain.~ ~
35    24|           addrest,~Which had been taken by Anglantes' peer;~Nor
36    25|        ended ill,~Hath there been taken, as I see. Ah! why~Was she
37    25|            Must needs be slain or taken by his foes.~ ~ LXXXVII~
38    26|          Rodomont another way~Had taken, when he reached the mountain,

40    27|           worthy pair a view~Have taken of the ground, and have
41    27|      Durindane.~Gradasso bold was taken by surprise,~Not deeming
42    27|            And how that horse was taken from him sought;~And this
43    27|         lost his courser, how was taken,~I say not now, who have
44    28|            And, for the stripling taken to her bed,~To deem the
45    29|         dight,~And squeezed, when taken from the caldron, through~
46    29|           peer,~So rare a way was taken by the dame.~Spirit! which
47    30|       desired they should befall)~Taken had been the Tartar king
48    31|           arms, was by the paynim taken.~ ~ XLV~"Few days are past,
49    31|         Their guard and sentries, taken by surprise,~So broken are
50    31|           that damsel spent,~When taken she her Brandimart espied,~
51    31|           risk displayed~Of being taken in that press, or slain;~
52    32|             His choicest warriors taken, chased, or dead --~In Arles
53    33|            where,~Vanquishing and taken, nevermore to offend~With
54    33|          numbers; lo!~The king is taken, is conveyed to Spain;~And
55    35|         near.~The day before here taken was the pair,~And sent by
56    35|         tower.~ ~ LIV~All others, taken from the paynim train,~Bradamant
57    36|        ground:~Nor was the damsel taken by surprise:~Nay, did her
58    37|         Rogero stood;~And, having taken leave, the cavalier~Withdraws
59    38|    faulchion, who~Would fain have taken my virginity.~When grown,
60    38|    country was defended ill,~Have taken, burnt, destroyed and sacked
61    38|       warring with our band,~Have taken courage to assail your land.~ ~
62    39| transformed her female front,~And taken Argier's mighty shape; in

69    42|            XIX~The County has him taken, bleeding sore;~Thither,
70    43|          what hue my wife became,~Taken by me in such notorious
