Canto

 1     1|       poor Angelica the bridle turns~When she the approaching
 2     1|     XIII~The affrighted damsel turns her palfrey round,~And shakes
 3     2|       first the damsel thither turns her eyes,~A youthful cavalier
 4     3|    mound;~Then back the rabble turns of various form;~And when
 5     6|        the first sound, Rogero turns to see~Whence came the voice,
 6     8|    warrior deems disgrace,~And turns towards the swiftly-footed
 7     9|        full of courteous lore,~Turns to the county, after greetings
 8     9|    swift.~ ~ LXXII~The monarch turns his back, and leaves the
 9     9|      stone;~And wheresoe'er he turns his haughty front,~Appears (
10    10|        and dainty fare.~Rogero turns and with thick kisses plies~
11    11|      more achieves~Than at ten turns the circling windlass heaves.~ ~
12    11|      he has felt the cord, and turns him round,~And rolls and
13    12|       Entering, around Orlando turns his eyes,~Yet neither cavalier
14    12|      the king,~Nor him Orlando turns about to see.~He cuts, and
15    14|       narrow space between the turns it made,~Where'er from side
16    14|     Where'er the angel Michael turns his wing,~The clouds are
17    14|      are scattered and the sky turns bright;~About his person
18    15|       last assault. His eye~He turns, and when the wild-fires,
19    15|        Gryphon and Aquilant by turns divide,~Now to the teeth,
20    15| together with the warlike two,~Turns to the right, resolved to
21    16|       in air a murky cloud.~By turns each host gives way, and
22    16|        and Fury, all offend by turns,~In Paris Rodomont the people
23    17|     Does mighty deeds; Martano turns his front,~Showing how recreant
24    18|       dead;~And wheresoe'er he turns his steps, are left~Heads,
25    18|    sword, and spear, and dart,~Turns Rodomont, with action nothing
26    18|        Behold the good Rinaldo turns that way!~That, for this
27    18|     hears him, in affright~She turns her palfrey, and for flight
28    18|        taken unawares,~Martan' turns pale and trembles like a
29    18| matchless bravery,~His courser turns, and bids the king have
30    19| stripling: like a top, the boy turns round~And keeps him as he
31    19|        XI~To him the stripling turns, with suppliant cry,~And, "
32    19|      port within command.~Pale turns the patron's visage with
33    20|       well seen;~And whosoever turns the leaf of story,~Finds
34    20|   servitude so base,~As he who turns to grass the generous steed~
35    20|      to find upon the quay;~He turns and gazes round the desert
36    22|        sought.~He to the index turns, and quickly sees~What pages
37    22|            LXXXVIII~He quickly turns, and, turning, rolls his
38    23|      wide;~What time, when one turns up the inverted base,~Towards
39    25|      known aright:~For each by turns its opposite outweighs.~
40    25|        the stripling's face he turns his eyes,~Which hangs declined
41    27|        aid:~No mill-wheel ever turns with swifter flight~The
42    32|     livelong night,~Tosses and turns, nor ever finds repose;~
43    32|     was before.~ ~ CI~The maid turns pale, and all her colour
44    34|  wealthy dower,~O'er which aye turns the restless wheel, I say:~
45    34|     earthly ball.~ ~ LXXXII~He turns him back, upon some days
46    36|      Aymon's watchful daughter turns the rein;~And on one side
47    36|        To join his king Rogero turns the rein.~ ~ LXXXIV~When
48    39|  strives against the leash, by turns;~Such till that moment had
49    39|        no longer make a stand,~Turns from the combat, and directly
50    41|       Sericana's monarch hard,~Turns round, and, like himself,
51    41|        hollow roar,~Towards it turns his prow, and, when so high~
52    41|    Come to himself, the County turns his eye~And sees his Brandimart
53    43|       servant from his pathway turns aside,~And through bye-roads
54    43|     Argia, prompt to serve her turns.~Because the nurse, that
55    43|    bier, and ranged to bear~By turns that honoured weight were
56    44|        mead.~Many he stops and turns; then rests his spear;~And,
57    45|       since her wheel for ever turns.~ ~ V~Through that fair
58    45|        their unwary guide,~Who turns his back the wicket to unchain,~
59    45|      after thunder sudden wind~Turns the sea upside down; and
60    46|        She moves, where'er she turns her lucid eyes,~Not only
