Canto

 1     1|          darkness sate:~And with sad mien and trembling voice
 2     2|         had taken post,~With the sad remnant of his broken host.~ ~
 3     2|        While his moist eyes, and sad and downcast air,~Speak
 4     3|        turn the scale!"~And in a sad and softer tone pursued,~"
 5     5|        bewildered tone,~The last sad words which Ariodantes said; --~
 6     5|   coursers stand.~To advance the sad Dalinda was in fear,~Yet
 7     6|         wooed,~Lamented much the sad Astolpho, turned~From his
 8     8|       sea,~Where I had ended its sad days, immersed;~Because
 9     8|      bore~On board their ship, a sad, afflicted train.~This done,
10     8|         mournful strain,~And the sad shepherd weep for her in
11     9|       courier to Biscay,~Who the sad news should to Bireno tell:~
12    10|         and moan, and prayers~Of sad Olympia, sorrowing on the
13    10|         LV~Alcina flies; and her sad troop around~Routed and
14    11|      restore thy weapons bright,~Sad soldier, to the forge, a
15    11|       was Olympia clothed; while sad of mood~Was he, not so to
16    13|   blameless, fair, and young; to sad reverse~Condemned, I now
17    14|       wear,~At whose remembrance sad Ravenna trembles,~And aye
18    14|        hue~Is yet pourtrayed the sad and craven sprite:~-- Yet,
19    15|          pair had cast,~Till the sad influence of the skies were
20    16|        fed,~Was never sight more sad! -- I told withal,~How vaulting
21    16|         be they warrantry~Of the sad news thy servant now makes
22    17|          took his way.~She, with sad face, and suppliant evermore,~
23    17|          in his thought.~In this sad servitude he long was tried,~
24    18|        done for her relief,~With sad and signal vengeance on
25    19|     there unsheltered lies,~More sad than for his own misfortune
26    20|      return to Crete~Is in their sad estate the wiser lore,~Throwing
27    21|      wont before:~From which the sad Philander hoped and thought~
28    21|     smile:~All his discourse was sad, and still ensued~Sobs from
29    23|       beside~The real truth, did sad Orlando lean~Upon the empty
30    24|      whom a prize~I know not, my sad fate compels, I swear,~My
31    25|            He even wore a visage sad and drear:~For he, that
32    28|          himself; while evermore~Sad thoughts some newer cause
33    29| disturbed, again applied~To that sad lady, heartless with affright;~
34    29|      untouched, unstained.~ ~ XI~Sad Isabella in her mind is
35    29|         Lamented sore his error, sad at soul.~ ~ XXXI~That placated,
36    30|     absence, said~The lady these sad words, and more beside,~
37    31|         accident, so strange and sad, distrust,~Rinaldo is distraught
38    32|      damsel throws,~And that the sad lament by sorrow bred,~May
39    33|           And to herself in this sad fashion said:~ ~ LXII~"What
40    33|      else to her afford.~For the sad damsel meat and sleep foregoes,~
41    34|       compared with this -- that sad and drear,~And seen by heaven
42    35|          guise.~ ~ LI~Silent and sad, he raised himself from
43    36|        may know:~But sorest vext sad Bradamant remains;~Beholding
44    37|   suffers not, that, as whilere,~Sad Ulany shall tramp by hill
45    37|          Who brought erewhile to sad and bitter close~The wicked
46    37|       upheave:~Let rulers in his sad example see,~Ill doers in
47    38|     traitorously laid low.~Me my sad mother carried in her womb~
48    40|         Dudon shends,~Reduced to sad and sore extremity;~Them
49    41|       and with drooping heads, a sad array;~Adding, he must to
50    41|          vent~Whence issues that sad clamour and lament.~ ~ XXI~
51    42|          chased the Saracens, or sad;~ ~ XXIV~See what she does
52    43|      coasts, in tears and making sad lament,~The marshes that
53    43|     spotted snake.~ ~ XCIX~" `So sad it is that loathsome coil
54    43|         of yore."~ ~ CLXXV~These sad laments and more Orlando
55    43|         Can ease, or satisfy her sad desires,~Vows in her heart
56    44|      victory won~-- But for that sad disaster -- would have done.~ ~
57    44|         repose;~For albeit those sad tidings have not vent~Yet
58    45|          mind~Had heard Rogero's sad estate declare,~And how
59    45|     saving these, none hears the sad lament,~Nor sees the flood
60    46|   instruction square.~Some chant sad elegies, some verses gay~
