 6     6|         As is already told) the unhappy knight,~Against his brother
 7     6|   relief,~Might but console the unhappy warrior's grief.~ ~ LV~As
 8     8|         grassy shore,~Angelica, unhappy damsel, sleeps.~To wood
 9     8|            LXXXII~Meanwhile the unhappy lover lost the dame~In that
10    10|    weeping sore~The fate of her unhappy father dead,~He saw her
11    10|         with all her might, the unhappy dame~Calls often on her
12    11|      That cursed soul, amid the unhappy crew,~Beside the accursed
13    12|      None is there who, in that unhappy straight,~Stops for his
14    12|  replies,~As he inquires of her unhappy doom,~In sweet and broken

24    21|      was Argaeus brought~To his unhappy life's disastrous end,~And
25    21|     deadly dole,~Approaching my unhappy brother, cried,~`It was
26    22|         And of the cause of her unhappy plight,~Him, since he sought
27    22|       with desire~To snatch the unhappy stripling from the fire.~ ~
28    23|    dismal than the rest,~Is the unhappy father's visage drest.~ ~
29    23|      accursed and fell,~On that unhappy day, than tongue can tell.~ ~
30    23|      CXXI~A deadly axe was this unhappy close,~Which, at a single
31    23|       light, was brought~By his unhappy fortune to the fount,~Where
32    24|     rein:~She with her eyes the unhappy signs explored,~And she

34    25|     doubtful heart incline:~The unhappy lover fruitlessly had thought~
35    29|    should gain;~Who, having his unhappy error read,~Seeks to appease

39    36|       unrighteous doom,~Of your unhappy sire deprived that fair,~
40    37|      And rack the childless and unhappy sire,~Who groans like sea,
41    37|       by every way;~And finally unhappy Avarice, bought~By costly
42    37|   brought beneath their guide,~(Unhappy women) to the brothers'
43    38|     guilty of the death~Of that unhappy pair, who gave me breath."~ ~

50    42|      falcon's nail,~Escapes the unhappy sparrowhawk, half dead,~
