 2     3|         love prevail;~Alas! the wretched pair are of thy blood,~So
 3     4|     eyes,~Esteemed as fair, the wretched damsels round,~(And all
 4     4|     grappled fast the foe.~That wretched man, the volume by whose
 5     5|       case,~And figure what the wretched lover's woe,~When Polinesso
 6     5|      had vainly pressed.~Then, `Wretched brother, what insanity.'~(
 7     6|     engage him in a new.~ ~ ~ I~Wretched that evil man who lives
 8     6|       in the sea engulphed, the wretched knight,~Repentant of his
 9     8|         greater still.~ ~ LIX~O wretched maids! whom 'mid that barbarous
10     8|        rout~Ill-fortune on that wretched shore has tost!~Who for
11     8|       woe~Rather than this, thy wretched suppliant try.~If this be
12     8|         repeats.~And while, "Oh wretched me!" is his exclaim,~"Who
13     9|      Proud Friesland's arms our wretched remnant quell.~Bireno, who
14     9|   appear,~Than his with this my wretched life to buy,~This life I
15    10|       with one bark escaped the wretched fay.~ ~ LV~Alcina flies;
16    11|    reaped so ill a meed.~ ~  LV~Wretched Olympia; whom, beside the
17    12|    plant and plant,~Now can his wretched eyes behold her more.~Blaspheming
18    13|       story hear.~-- And let my wretched life the forfeit pay!~For
19    13|     reverse~Condemned, I now am wretched, poor, and vile,~And in
20    14|      Argier slays~Or smites the wretched laggard who delays.~ ~ CXVII~'
21    15|   strung~Might not be seen some wretched prisoner hung.~ ~ L~As in
22    16|        see~Two hundred thousand wretched men or more~Burnt by the
23    17|       abandoned by the train~Of wretched Christians, heathen hounds
24    18|       scared, so crowded is the wretched crew,~That many in Seine'
25    18|     Pillowed on barrel, lay the wretched Gryll:~This he had drained,
26    19|      did divide)~Make for their wretched ship, the billows through:~
27    20|      And leaving thus alone the wretched train,~Thence, with their
28    20|          Little, by Heaven, the wretched man appay~Who of his liberty
29    21|     spirit go;~And quench these wretched eyes, which in remorse,~
30    21|    light,~Till thither came the wretched castellain.~As it was ordered,
31    21|    think you, sir, remained~The wretched elder by his fears opprest?~
32    22|     cruelty,~For they alive the wretched youth will burn;~Nor think
33    23|      bed.~ ~ CXVII~The more the wretched sufferer seeks for ease,~
34    23|    cruel pain,~It past into the wretched sufferer's head,~That oft
35    24|      besides~The fury which the wretched Count misguides.~ ~ LI~Had
36    24|        river, where~She saw the wretched count; but what befel~The
37    24|         Trojan helm defends the wretched horse,~Like Mandricardo,
38    25|         when day is broken,~The wretched Flordespina's woes augment:~
39    26|     here learned, dismayed,~How wretched is the poor foot-soldier'
40    27|  Almontes wore;~Which from that wretched man, beside a font,~Youthful
41    27|      better deed,~To leave that wretched caitiff to his pain;~And
42    27| opposite to kindly faith!~Lost, wretched man, who trusts you to his
43    28|         erthrown:~No remedy the wretched man surveys,~In that his
44    29|        in haste;~So pleased the wretched count her visage fair,~So
45    31|      its festive pleasures,~The wretched lover ill his comfort measures.~ ~
46    31|     than every other woe,~Makes wretched man despair, and lays him
47    32|        should pleasure me?~Most wretched is the mortal that would
48    32|  disdain:~From her all hope the wretched damsel spurns,~And to her
49    33|       hear again?~What ails ye, wretched eyes, that closed ye show~
50    33|    Whene'er to eat or drink the wretched man~Prepared, by that resistless
51    34|       shall wend,~And see those wretched ones expelled from day;~
52    34|        was satisfied~On this my wretched person, which alone~He so
53    34|         in hell."~ ~ XLIV~Since wretched Lydia spake no more, the
54    37|     below;~But death was to the wretched dame refused;~Who lay with
55    38|       wholly spent will be your wretched train.~ ~ LIV~"Orlando's
56    39|      kindled, slowly spent,~The wretched crews would fain that danger
57    41|          Which vainly would the wretched band eschew;~Whom towards
58    41|     drown,~And she with all her wretched freight goes down;~ ~ XX~
59    43|        Poor, pale, unshorn, and wretched (as whilere~To you in former
60    43|  acquire that mighty fee,~Which wretched Anselm's absence would afford,~
61    43|      lay his sprite.~So was the wretched judge with grief opprest,~
62    45|  cavalier,~And who prepared the wretched Child to kill,~By torture
63    45|      hadst thou known this; ah! wretched me!~How can I e'er in future
