Canto

 1     1|         maid.~ ~ XXII~Oh! goodly truth in cavaliers of old!~Rivals
 2     2|       thief thyself, if Fame the truth reports:~But let good deeds
 3     3|        scanned,~Merlin to me the truth should better clear;~And
 4     4|     hollow and ideal.~ ~ XX~This truth by him with fictions was
 5     5|       nature flow.~Now, that the truth be better understood,~I
 6     5| preferred~And loved with perfect truth and all her heart,~Was the
 7     5|        in arms would testify~The truth of what he vouched, the
 8     6|           for before,~Others, in truth, the fairy's love did share:~
 9     6|         I willingly to thee this truth impart,~Not that I hope
10     7|      peer?~ ~ LIX~"This does, in truth, a fair beginning show;~
11     7|     should hear and see the very truth.~ ~ LXVIII~"That gentle
12     7|     fitting praise,~Tempering in truth and fondness her narration;~
13     8|   virtuous ring which served the truth to explore!~ ~ III~Rogero,
14     9|    ability~But more approved for truth, as followers, who~Bred
15     9|  betrayed,~Or that they could in truth perform no more,~Me with
16    10|      heart explored:~And if fair truth such spirits should endear,~
17    10|       aught~More precious can in truth be styled, or thought.~ ~
18    10|        like hers, and still with truth unmoved,~Veered not his
19    10|         tells; but to relate~The truth, a longing in Bireno bred~
20    12|      another road, save here,~In truth, you covet to be slain by
21    12|         hard, unless report from truth depart;~And armed to battle
22    13|      Rogero you descry:~But, for truth is not in the lying show,~
23    14|        Made to King Agramant the truth appear,~He from the gallows-tree
24    14|         lies,~So like the simple truth appears her say,~The angel
25    15|       had this while (to say~The truth) with vantage on his side,
26    15|      Converted by Orlando to the truth,~Who had, with his own hands,
27    17|       wrong, and to the king the truth attest,~Retorting upon him
28    18|         thy fame,~And merged, in truth, in glory thou hast won;~
29    18|      Save in all points the very truth be said.~Awhile on this
30    18|        had sore offended me.~The truth of this my ensign may display.~
31    19|        delay the aid.~And she in truth, her will to satisfy,~Deemed '
32    20|       prince relief,~Knowing the truth, in her perversity~What
33    20|    conjure,~By men and gods, the truth no more to hide,~Did she
34    21|       cried, "It does not me, in truth, confound,~To think that
35    21|          eye;~For ill the simple truth admits reply.~ ~  LXX~Zerbino
36    23|          cavalier,~Rehearsed the truth; and this so well he said,~
37    23|      phantasies, beside~The real truth, did sad Orlando lean~Upon
38    25|         In wary wise, intent the truth to find,~Rogero said, "You
39    27|          with sword in hand, the truth maintain.~ ~ LXXIV~"Yet
40    28| Exclaimed that ancient) "wherein truth is none,~And of such matters
41    28|      believe not, that told this truth to you,~Though in all else
42    28|          scared, ill pleased the truth to read.~So that, through
43    29|           By that, which can the truth form falsehood sift,~Experience,
44    30|         Agramant recognized this truth; but thought~That ill his
45    30|       Not King Gradasso will the truth deny:~Sacripant knows it
46    31|        thee will made appear~The truth of all I say with arms in
47    32|      gifts and clear,~Allow thee truth, thy graces to complete?~
48    32|           The praise of spotless truth to thee allow,~To which
49    33|         falsehood so delight and truth annoy,~Never more may I
50    36|     sought his bed,~Must of this truth the fittest witness be.~
51    37|         Of a sure pillar of pure truth possest~In her, despising
52    38|           XIII~"And (to avow the truth) in jealous mood~Alone I
53    41|          say,~(To speak the very truth) I do not know,~Who with
54    42|           thyself shalt view~The truth, if thou in this fair vessel
55    43|         Not as so much about her truth in pain,~As that I could
56    43|         cried)~Guided by me, the truth shall ascertain;~Voice,
57    43|   through this city's cause, the truth to tell,~Hath reason evermore
58    43|      wrought:~But he forgot this truth in time of need;~And so
59    43|        foot':~ ~ CX~"And he, the truth of his discourse to show,~
60    43|          her apart,~To learn the truth employs his every art.~ ~
61    43|      found~He could not fish the truth by prayer or fee,~Touching
62    44|          the eye;~And, writ with truth, above, below, between,~
63    45|      Syracusan, Samian show~This truth, and more whose names I
64    45|        of fickleness, as full of truth;~ ~ XXX~And her reproves
65    45|    flight:~All talk; and yet the truth is guessed by none.~Well
66    45|        moved him to maintain his truth.~ ~ LXI~With the emperor'
67    45|          well I wot, that if the truth were known,~This Leo will
68    45|          to break,~Than tell the truth, she speaks; and with consent~
69    46|         fair,~Temple of Love and Truth and Chastity:~With her,
70    46|       dungeon drew,~Descried the truth, as this I now descry,~Such
