 1   Int|          the Bradamante-Ruggiero story that eventually takes center
 2     1|       from those ancient days my story bring,~When Moors from Afric
 3     1|      said, he spurred again, his story told,~And left him little
 4     2|           though twice told, the story stale;~But makes him oft
 5     3|        bears~The one renowned in story's future page:~The next
 6     5|        And in conclusion thus my story piece.~ ~ V~"Of direr deed
 7     5|           But think not that thy story shall avail,~Unless my very
 8     5|       gentle maid,~Who the whole story of Geneura bright,~And her
 9     6|        next the voice began: "My story dark,~Forced by thy courteous
10     6|        So well-instructed in the story, said~One who rehearsed
11     7|      sore.~But not for him their story will I slight,~Nor Bradamant
12     8|         Awhile I will pursue her story: I~Told how the maid of
13     8|       sobs, in doleful tone,~The story, to her hearer not unknown.~ ~
14     8|         him in vain;~To whom the story in due place returns.~No
15    10|    punishment:~As well as I, the story dost thou know;~Now, see
16    13|        not but thou shouldst the story hear.~-- And let my wretched
17    13|         lives,~(Haply that I the story might narrate)~This I no
18    13|          wider here and there my story ranges,~It will be found
19    14|   adventure, strange and fell;~A story which breeds terror but
20    14|              then, first, -- the story known,~Even what he did
21    17|           He should have let her story change his mood,~Who him
22    18|     Ptolomita grown;~Of whom the story, an example rare~Of constant
23    18|          word.~Sir Turpin in his story tells not who,~And Time
24    19|         But be Medoro's faithful story said,~The youth who loved
25    20|      whosoever turns the leaf of story,~Finds record of them, neither
26    20|        And now (according to the story told)~Will, since it pleases
27    20|          dread suspicion had her story wrought.~He to find Isabella
28    21|      churl is gone.'~She by this story made her husband hate~The
29    21|   changed his part;~And told the story to the standers-by;~Nor
30    22|     constant heart throughout my story done.~He who betrayed his
31    22|   censure in my lays,~For so the story wills which I recite,~On
32    22|       heart sore troubled at the story shown;~As anxious for the
33    22|       loves the tale, to hear my story's end.~ ~
34    23|         a poor foot-page.~-- His story done, to them in proof was
35    23|         may irksome be;~And I my story will delay to end,~Rather
36    24|          has suffered worst,~The story of his crimes will have
37    24|          know,~So as to thee the story to have told;~The sequel
38    24|       Zerbino hears him tell~His story, gazing upon Odoric's brow,~
39    24|      lets him (as rehearsed) the story know.~When, without further
40    25|         by a Moor~In the head (a story tedious to recite)~A holy
41    25|  pleasing than what I recount~In story there is none, I well surmise:~
42    25|          from first to last,~The story I was telling you before;~
43    26|      prayed, if any guessed~That story, he would tell it to the
44    26|          has consigned to living story.~ ~ XXXIX~"The chiefs whose
45    27|         memory gone)~So well one story in my head imprest,~It could
46    28|            the tale untold --~My story will as clear and perfect
47    28|        make his creed.~But to my story: -- When his auditory~He
48    28|      here (who would believe the story?) found~A remedy unhoped,
49    28|    replied,~Until the landlord's story was suspended.~Then -- "
50    29|        as renowned should be thy story rare,~Thousands and thousands
51    29|       repeat,~I know not when my story would be done.~Yet some
52    29|         deem the rhyme,~Defer my story till another time.~ ~
53    32|      When Bradamant the Gascon's story heard,~That lady suffered
54    32|        his horse the head -- his story told --~And plies him so
55    33|          wizard, and renewed the story,~Which told of Charlemagne'
56    33|      show;~And more than ten her story testified,~Where one sufficed --
57    33|         But so I will not on her story dwell,~As not to seek anew
58    34|    henceforth be silent, that in story~Exalt the world's seven
59    34|         his vengeance doomed, as story shows;~Sent, for seven years,
60    35| recollect; of him~I speak, whose story I erewhile suspended,~Ancient
61    35|         by him Isabella lay,~The story gentle Flordelice had taught;~
62    36|      Marphisa could not hear the story through:~To him she cries, "
63    37|     untold,~While at a stand the story would remain~Of fierce Marphisa
64    37|         that every age~Worthy of story, many a dame supplies;~But
65    40|       the Child am bound,~To his story brings me back, and bids
66    42|  disposal left.~ ~ XX~Here as my story stood not on good ground,~
67    42|       declare, that I~In this my story haply tell no lie.~ ~ XXIII~
68    42|          XXXVIII~Of this strange story fully certified~Was Malagigi
69    43|        good;~Next learns another story, as he steers~Toward Ravenna
70    43|      would least have spread~The story of his woe, Adonio hies;~
71    43|      dome (as I~To you was in my story making known)~When he expected
72    45|         of ancient and of modern story,~That ill succeeds to good,
73    45|       Aymon cried)~For, were the story true which ye have feigned,~
