Canto

 1     1|         Against the realm of France Spain's martial flower.~'Twas
 2     3|           over Julius, leagued with Spain.~Paunch-deep in human blood
 3     4|            sky~Discovers France and Spain, and either shore.~As from
 4     9|           the hosts of Afric and of Spain;~ ~ III~Rather uncamped:
 5     9|            Picards to the bounds of Spain.~ ~ VII~Between October
 6     9|          Holland should return from Spain.~ ~ XXXIV~"For one ill-born,
 7    10|        hither, good Rogero, leaving Spain,~Had sought, in level line,
 8    10|             compassing the whole of Spain:~But stopt his courser on
 9    12|           passing into Libya out of Spain.~While bold Orlando has
10    12|              Brandimart, and him of Spain,~Ferrau, he finds, with
11    12|          with him came,~And that of Spain which followed to the fight~
12    13|        captains, and those good, of Spain,~Of Libya, and of Aethiopia,
13    13|        conflicts dread,~This to his Spain, to his Africa that lord,~
14    14|          and conflict dread,~'Twixt Spain and Afric and their Gallic
15    14|          almost victorious flags of Spain;~And those bold youths their
16    14|          lost,~So the two kings who Spain and Afric lead,~To give
17    14|           band to steer~The King of Spain appoints Sir Isolier.~ ~
18    14|           filed the warlike host of Spain~In fair review before King
19    14|           Friesland mare and nag of Spain.~King Mandricardo, armed
20    14|             which has no paragon in Spain,~Where amid tears (in laughter
21    14|          not for sight of France or Spain;~But to behold that cheek
22    14|             what was his, as far as Spain.~ ~ CVI~Where'er the walls
23    14|           And what beside he out of Spain had led,~Marsilius was in
24    15|       assailing hosts of Africa and Spain.~Astolpho home by Logistilla
25    15|          isle, France, Thessaly, or Spain.~Nor great Octavius does
26    16|   half-a-mile removed from those of Spain,~Posted upon that side,
27    16|     valiantly assailed the flags of Spain,~And long in even scale
28    17|            faithful few.~You men of Spain, and you, ye men of France,~
29    17|              possest?~ ~ LXXVI~Thou Spain, hast thou not fruitful
30    18|       Marsilius halts the flower of Spain,~And forms the host, his
31    18|           the wise and wary king of Spain,~Gathered, and from the
32    19|           which fertile France from Spain divide.~ ~ XLI~Within Valencia
33    20| neighbouring realms, but France and Spain~Wot well of Clermont, from
34    22|      daughter of Marsilius, king of Spain,~And feigning, veiled in
35    22|      trumpet-sound,~Told France and Spain and all the countries round.~ ~
36    25|       repaired young Flordespine of Spain,~Who in that wood was hunting
37    26|        ravage France and Italy,~And Spain and England's desolated
38    26|           scandal of the Church and Spain,~And to the Florentine's
39    26|           such esteem, the pride of Spain?~So praised by Malagigi,
40    27|           Christian foe.~"Afric and Spain!" is the assailants' word,~
41    27|             third!" (he said)~"Come Spain and Afric and all human
42    27|             that the worthy king of Spain~Came thither with renowned
43    27|             obeyed;~And -- fronting Spain -- whate'er of level land~
44    28|           daughter of a publican of Spain,~Of presence and of manners
45    28|           the kings of Afric and of Spain.~ ~ XCII~To pass to Afric
46    29|         straighter lay for Italy or Spain:~Their courage and their
47    29|             south, upon the land of Spain.~His way along the beach
48    30|        large portion of the land of Spain,~Dragging that jennet in
49    30|          the troops of Africk or of Spain;~And Doralice, herself,
50    31|       ascend.~Him the twin hosts of Spain and Afric fly,~Nor time
51    32|         river, nigh the shore,~With Spain in front and Africa before.~ ~
52    32|          sort,~Marsilius throughout Spain their loss repairs;~And
53    33|            you behold, the pride of Spain.~Fortune to Lewis a fair
54    33|         side France, upon the other Spain,~Extend their files, and
55    33|            is taken, is conveyed to Spain;~And all upon Pescara's
56    33|          France's fertile land from Spain divide.~ ~ XCVII~To Arragon
57    33|             throughout the realm of Spain.~ ~ XCVIII~Beneath him Cadiz
58    33|             sea that severs it from Spain.~ ~ XCIX~Morocco, Fez, and
59    35|            foe's courtesy to him of Spain.~"He takes him not, although
60    35|          fierce of mood,~And in all Spain the proudest cavalier,~The
61    38|            Catay unto the bounds of Spain~Had journeyed, with a thousand
62    38|             those ill purchasers of Spain to trade,~Found such a faithful

65    38|            If oft united Africa and Spain~Were losers, when sixteen

67    38|         wend those of Africk and of Spain.~In the mid space between
