Canto

 1     3|         the bold son, is with the sire, and he~Shall conquer Milan,
 2     3|           Hugh! O noble line!~O!  sire succeeded by an equal heir!~
 3     3|       where he is hostage for his sire,~His dirge is heard: A stripling
 4     3|      shines as bright~As his good sire's, nor is his valour less;~
 5     4|        and crest,~Formed like his sire, as in the feet before;~
 6     4|         has laid low,~A venerable sire, with sorrowing face;~Whose
 7     5|           maid.~He with her royal sire might well succeed,~Were
 8     5|        may divine how grieves the sire, distraught~With woe, when
 9     6|     Geneura heard~Lurcanio to her sire his charge preferred:~ ~
10     8|           Sir Agrican,~Subdued my sire, who Galaphron was hight,~
11     8|           was sore torment to the sire, severe~And impious more
12     9|           XXXII~"And I remaining, sire and brethren dead,~The isle
13     9|        kindred, by whose spite~My sire and both my brothers slaughtered
14     9|        grace, and have him for my sire.~ ~ XXXVII~" Mid many in
15    10|           both my brethren and my sire were slain,~And every other
16    14|        How woe-begone will be her sire,~When he the miserable case
17    14|          her, to whom the eternal Sire as well,~Having found Silence,
18    16|         beside). "To-day,~To-day, sire, is the Roman empire sped,~
19    17|         slab, and gilded beam,~By sire and grandsire held in high
20    19|     Monodantes grave,~His ancient sire, through Roland's chivalry)~
21    20|       cannot hold,~Leave brother, sire, and son, with these to
22    20|            Throwing themselves at sire and husband's feet,~Than
23    22|        her were fain,~As his good sire had been, and anciently~
24    23|     avenge the famous Agrican, my sire.~ ~  LXXX~"Him this Orlando
25    24|           devoted to her heavenly sire.~ ~ XC~Not that she would
26    25|      Pasiphae's bull and Myrrha's sire;~But mine is madder than
27    25|          her kin, Rinaldo and her sire,~Her afterwards in wedlock
28    26|        Sir Guidobald,~Will not by sire, or other, distanced be:~
29    28|        distant shore;~Him did her sire in sickness entertain,~Returning
30    28|         scarce began to blow:~Her sire with many children was o'
31    28|          and demand~Thee from thy sire in lawful wedlock's band.~ ~
32    28|          in the care~Of that good sire, she bowned herself to steer,~
33    29|      Isabel."~ ~ XXX~So spake the Sire; and cleared the ambient
34    32|           this mansion, which his sire bestowed,~He kept, and rarely
35    33|       read;~ ~ XXVI~"And his from sire or grandsire heard recite;~
36    33|         heard recite;~So son from sire; even to that baron, who~
37    34|      Armenian, an old rival of my sire,~And mortal for, he sought
38    34|         His banner, and attack my sire; and, through~His famous
39    34|     forbade access:~'Twas here my sire, amid those of his own~Whom
40    34|           at first rejected by my sire,~'Twas, he was somedeal
41    34|        his son;~Nay, had my royal sire my suit gainsayed,~For him
42    34|       that fair chariot yokes the sire;~Who, when the knight and
43    35|         last.~ ~ XVII~Of that old sire, and why he would dispense~
44    35|      divine,~But for that bearded sire's unwearied pains,~And his
45    36| unrighteous doom,~Of your unhappy sire deprived that fair,~Not
46    36|         makes request~To say what sire was theirs, and what their
47    36|          for his love against her sire rebelled;~And was baptized,
48    36|      flame;~ ~ LXXIV~And country, sire, and brethren two betrayed,~
49    36|    brother knew~Agramant's uncle, sire, and grandsire fell,~In
50    36|        wrong,~In leaving thus our sire unvenged so long.~ ~ LXXVII~"
51    37|          for you~Declared, and -- sire and son -- the Strozzi twain;~
52    37|         albeit avaricious was the sire,~He never crossed the youths
53    37|         The bitter tidings to the sire were brought,~Who bade bear
54    37|         the childless and unhappy sire,~Who groans like sea, when
55    38|        without shame;~And, if his sire had by Almontes died,~In
56    38|    Agramant reserved,~And for his sire's and uncle's kin shall
57    38|       point to point, the sainted sire explained;~ ~ XXVI~Then
58    39|          How Monodantes, his good sire, was dead,~And, on his brother,
59    39|    vengeance placed,~For her dead sire; and as she fiercely spurred,~
60    41|        the sight,~Well proves the sire of Este's noble peers~Must,
61    41|           instructs the venerable sire,~As toward the rocky cell
62    41|      beauty grown,~That, like his sire, Rogero shall be hight,~
63    43|         life.~ ~ VIII~"For as our sire who tasted of that tree,~
64    43|        skilled as well~As her own sire, or scarce behind him fell.~ ~
65    43|           And that Duke Hercules' sire and Hercules' son~Was he
66    44|          Rogero paid.~The prudent sire that in such kindness spied~
67    44|         my joy;~He and his unjust sire; less dear his flight~With
68    44|      joined thy brethren with thy sire should be?~But 'tis my fear
69    44|           King Charlemagne;~And, "Sire, if ever yet," the damsel
70    44|           or go,~Observant of her sire, obeys the rein:~Yet prison,
71    44|           vain affied,~Of his old sire complains, and him doth
72    44|           him and was vain,~Would sire and son deprive of life
73    44|            in its fear~Neither to sire nor sister makes retreat;~
74    45| overthrown~Were Leo and his royal sire, the knight~Who won that
75    45|           Footmen and horsemen -- sire and son to slay.~ ~ VI~But
76    45|          thy friendship more than sire, and all~Whom I throughout
77    46|      Bulgars won;~How Leo and his sire were overlaid,~And all their
78    46|            not alone~The stubborn sire of Bradamant he swayed,~
79    46|          infant from his princely sire.~ ~ LXXXVII~He reverently
