Canto

 1     3|        talk, appear to yearn~To prove the wizard's strength, as
 2     4|        There many cavaliers, to prove their might,~Have gone,
 3     4|  explored,~In which a man might prove, by dangerous deed,~If blame
 4     4|         spent) upon the accuser prove the lie.~ ~ LIX~"Our impious
 5     5|     indeed, and see, but do not prove~Man's faith, nor is his
 6     5|  appears,~Who may upon Lurcanio prove the lie,~He cannot choose,
 7     6|       lovely dame's destruction prove,~To death I with one only
 8     9|          to seek him there,~Nor prove less pliant than had been
 9     9|      errant knight~Oh him would prove himself, with sword and
10    11| gallantry, no more~Shall valour prove their prowess as of yore.~ ~
11    12|       have said unhelmed will I prove true,~Here, single as I
12    15|       band,~Victorious he shall prove in every fray.~This is that
13    17|       their transgressions ever prove above~The long endurance
14    18|         desire a better life to prove,~That she, when Gryphon
15    18|          On them she fain would prove her martial might,~And to
16    18|         hearing cried,~(Ever to prove her warlike prowess bent)~"
17    18|     sword and lance,~Desired to prove the paladins of France;~ ~
18    18|       CXLIX~"I seek thee out to prove (if thou attend~My coming)
19    18|        glorious act myself will prove;~As well such famous death
20    19|         honour 'twere to-day to prove my might~On thee, whom weak
21    19|      and I, at my post,~Hope to prove this upon thee, to thy cost.~ ~
22    19|     goodness of thy heart, will prove no less,~Than are thy corporal
23    20|    slight,~'Tis fitting that we prove the warrior's hand;~Lest,
24    20|         by day,~At night should prove him with the female crew;~
25    20|         And that she this would prove upon her knight~With pact
26    20|          CXXIII~"But would thou prove what is my chivalry,~On
27    20|         her thee parforce.~Then prove we now who shall without
28    22|        his force does bend,~And prove how much the heavy marble
29    23|    right,~Nor yet perhaps would prove an easy quest.~He, without
30    23|     Both to behold thee, and to prove thy might;~And by the surcoat
31    24|       with its lord his prowess prove!'~ ~ LVIII~Zerbino having
32    26|       the stranger cried,~"Will prove upon me, which is best in
33    26|       two I would have crost~To prove how great your prowess in
34    26|      had evermore in thought~To prove the paladins of Charles,
35    26|       Would you that I delay to prove by deed,~That you have acted
36    26|        Will to her satisfaction prove his force.~To leave their
37    27|         word;~For I on him will prove, before thine eyes,~I have
38    29|      And thou to-day shalt also prove my lore:~And well, I trust,
39    29|     naked neck and breast.~Then prove on me thy faulchion and
40    29|    faulchion and thine arm,~And prove if one can smite, the other
41    30|    cried,) "it needs no more~To prove your title to that ensign
42    30|        saying, he parforce must prove how sore~The danger and
43    31|       the footing, and mine arm prove true";~Within himself young
44    31|    shalt understand,~And I will prove it manifest and clear,~I
45    32|    stripling knows what pangs I prove,~Yet will not aid me till
46    32|  prowess and the pith a-fire to prove,~When now the opened portals
47    32|     lance and lifted glaive,~To prove Sir Clodion a discourteous
48    32|       such gainsayer's will,~To prove my judgment right, his judgment
49    34|         will that he oppose~And prove his valour on our other
50    35|        we understand,~Before we prove our prowess with the spear:~
51    35|    should the Saracen deceitful prove,~Others, and others yet,
52    35|   cavalier~That would in combat prove his chivalry,~And to the
53    35|          Hither have I hied,~To prove how justly famed his might
54    36|      must go the royal maid,~To prove it hard or soft the listed
55    37|      tower, described by me,~To prove the savage use that cruel
56    38|     certain sign, had served to prove~That lady's little wit or
57    38|      less just!~Of, if I was to prove a prophet true,~Ye in Sobrino
58    40|      Impelled by huge desire to prove his might.~ ~ LXXVII~Already,
59    42|         wedded man must welcome prove.~ ~ C~"Ne'er, in my judgment,
60    42|         took the vase,~About to prove his fortune in the draught.~
61    43|      that witch-lady cried)~She prove what cannot by myself be
62    43|      again the goblet fill;~And prove if you the beverage drink
63    43|       defence from all the fury prove~Of such as hate thee; and
64    43|      abide:~Succeeding I should prove but what I thought;~And
65    43|        small the evil would not prove, if I~Saw of my Clarice
66    45|    blade~As soft as paste would prove all mail and plate;~For
67    45|        lists she will in strife~Prove Bradamant to be Rogero's
68    45|         before all others, will prove true~On her, if to deny
69    46|       withdraws his light,~Will prove on thee thine infidelity;~
70    46|       plain appear,~This will I prove upon thee; and, if thou~
