12    14|     prepare~For the assault of Paris. They may be~Assured they
13    14|      the day~Of battle, within Paris, everywhere,~By priest and
14    14|   Picardy:~These so conduct to Paris, that their tramp~And noise

30    24|       who again~Already had to Paris made repair.~So far the
31    25|        siege to disengage,~For Paris, with the gentle lady, steer;~
32    26|     the peer.~Marphisa to seek Paris is so fain,~That parting
33    26|        first champions towards Paris go,~And the two others next
34    27|       Defeated, Charlemagne to Paris flies.~Already all, throughout
35    27|     flies,~To other place than Paris might be brought:~But this

37    27|  Agramant his works behind,~To Paris yet again the warrior came,~
38    27|       the long-sought prey.~To Paris he repaired again, in thought~
39    27|     And fly for shelter to his Paris wall.~ ~  XXXI~Of fierce
40    27|     the game,~Charles had from Paris into exile gone,~If he had
