Canto

 1   Int|             Introduction~This work is a continuation of the "
 2   Int|   brief synopsis of Boiardo's work, omitting most of the numerous
 3   Int|     center stage in Ariosto's work.~Other characters of importance:
 4     2|     my eye~More wonderful the work, more fair to sight~The
 5     3|       fit to raise~The votive work, bestow, as I desire,~All
 6     3|      men a child of hell.~And work such evil, thinning with
 7     4|    The necromancer keeps, the work of spell."~(The host relates) "
 8     5|   fraudful foe,~So pleased to work Geneura's infamy;~And, while
 9     8|    The buckler, old Atlantes' work, to bare.~ ~ XI~He raised
10     8|      a thousand times before,~Work as they wont, when on the
11    10|      Nor man I see, nor see I work, which shows~That man inhabits
12    10|     him, after fashioning~Her work: Is none in whom such chivalry~
13    10|       nature did at first her work compose.~Not even a veil
14    11|     Esteemed such holy deed a work profane;~And said that this
15    11|       of Phidias' turnery,~Or work of better hand and nicer
16    11|     Zeuxis in days of old his work projected,~To be the ornament
17    16|        Who fears that he will work her scathe and shame;~And
18    16|     find without a guard;~And work elsewhere to bar the way
19    16|      dead,~Between the second work and outer wall;~Upon those
20    16|      all delay might sore his work impede.~This while King
21    18|    flying nought avails, from work and wall.~Their bosoms so
22    18|      won;~And other means may work upon the rest.~She thither
23    18|   cloud outshone~(Were it the work of faith or accident)~The
24    19|  mystery)~Disposed herself to work with simples' juice,~Till
25    19|     The knife was straight at work or ready pin.~And there,
26    19|     Arise anew from earth, to work her woe.~ ~ LXXXVIII~The
27    21|       though ill the world my work appay.~And yet he who condemns
28    21|    assay,~Well fitted for the work she had in hand,~Who better
29    25|          And power is mine to work portentous ends;~Nature
30    26|      Desirous, as the storied work they traced,~To know by
31    26|    warlike course.~But I such work shall give you, I conceive,~
32    27|       borne,~Where they would work the Christian army scorn.~ ~
33    27|   arose~About that horse, his work should not impede;~Which
34    29|     flood~Was hurrying on his work; nor yet were done~The tower
35    33| Inscribed below the beauteous work in gold.~ ~ LIX~When with
36    34|      fired,~And that I but to work his death desired.~ ~ XLII~"
37    34|      second dame replaced the work when done~With other; and
38    35|       golden lance its wonted work has done;~For that fierce
39    37|      my sweet consort not the work disdain,~And for the imperfect
40    37|      even the little children work him scorn:~Some pluck his
41    38|    mighty host would come, to work us woe?~'Twixt shifting
42    39|     taxing wits and hands, to work them woe,~Them with fire,
43    40|    rare,~Wherein was seen the work of days of yore:~Of other
44    42|   seem, as though~Their every work and every study meet~In
45    43|      day:~Yet never could she work upon my will,~With salve
46    43|       Anselmo left him at his work, and came~His answer on
47    43|     expose~A matter that will work the doctor woe;~And would
48    43|     Form, site, and sumptuous work doth he behold,~And royal
49    43|       in such foul and filthy work, espy!'~Bethink thee, if
50    43|     dight.~Thereon, of lordly work and no less fair,~Cushions
51    45|      that in haste~Is gone to work that warrior shame and woe;~
52    45|      prompter than herself to work him ill.~ ~ XXI~Oh! if Duke
53    46|     would persuade~Such pious work, he spurred behind the dame;~
54    46|     complete,~Since this fair work was fashioned by the lore~
55    46|     Priam's son,~For its rare work and her by whom 'twas done.~ ~
56    46|       By her who wrought that work, their gestures were.~ ~
57    46|       As sometimes where they work the golden vein~Within Pannonian
