 1     5|     Arrived, my arms about his neck I throw,~Weening that we
 2     6|   shape.~Formed downwards from neck like men, he scanned~Some
 3     6|       Fashioned like hound, in neck and ears and head,~Bayed
 4     7|        milk the bosom, and the neck of snow;~Round is the neck,
 5     7|     neck of snow;~Round is the neck, and full and large the
 6     7|      LIV~About the stripling's neck, a splendid string~Of gems,
 7     7|       sight, perceive~Upon thy neck and arms the servile chains,~
 8     7|       sendal hung,~This at his neck the youthful warrior slung.~ ~
 9     9|   cleft it through;~And to the neck divided by the blow,~Sent
10    12|        it the paynim armed his neck and head,~Who would not
11    14|    downwards, a full palm from neck and head.~ ~ CXXIII~At one
12    15|        misdeed:~For him, arms, neck, and feet, so closely tied,~
13    15|     ere it arms, and feet, and neck embraced.~From this the
14    15|      hair,~And fastened to the neck, I know not how.~This sometimes
15    15|     Who could a tower upon his neck convey.~The Holy Land a
16    16|        long space~Hangs on his neck, fast-locked in her embrace.~ ~
17    17| Sounding the pipe which at his neck was hung.~ ~ XXXVI~"Our
18    17|     that her hair escaped from neck or brow,~Was known; nor
19    18|   cheer,~Who bent to clasp his neck, towards him paced,~His
20    18|       made,~And -- through the neck impaled or through the breast, --~
21    19|      Nor yet of hanging on his neck can tire,~Of feel she can
22    20|    could have placed~About thy neck. Enough! that sword of thine,~
23    21|      One blow divided head and neck; for nought~Was there of
24    23|      Fraternally, each other's neck, and they~Had of each other'
25    23|       the strife,~As broke his neck, and stretched him void
26    23|        foot upon his prostrate neck should set.~ ~ LXVII~The
27    23|     her breast,~But bathed his neck and face with briny tear.~
28    23|  imprisoned in the vase,~Whose neck is narrow and whose swell
29    24|     commended,~About Gabrina's neck a halter threw,~And left
30    24|   LXVIII~Almost on his steed's neck the Tartar fell,~Bent by
31    25|      hand and shield about his neck.~ ~ XVIII~He, who was angered
32    25|        beauteous arms about my neck she throws,~And fondly clasping
33    26|   equally:~Lewis de Gazolo its neck has galled~With one of those
34    26|    CXVII~Even to his courser's neck Rogero bends;~Nor, when
35    27|        knot the cord~About his neck; because the very day~He
36    28| consented.~ ~ XV~"She from her neck unloosed a costly chain~
37    28|    wear;~ ~ XVI~"And round his neck entreats him, for her sake,~
38    29|      With tongs, he griped his neck, and after he~Had whirled
39    29|      Downwards below the naked neck and breast.~Then prove on
40    29|     and gladly did decline~Her neck to that unthinking pagan'
41    29|      He severed from the snowy neck and breast.~ ~  XXVI~This
42    29|        to die!~Who risqued his neck in that deep bottom, who~
43    33|       his blow,~Now strikes at neck or pinion; but on all,~As
44    35|    beauteous eyes,~Alabastrine neck, and paps of ivory,~Wander
45    37|      head,~That on his horse's neck he fell half dead.~ ~ CI~
46    37|    Another's head, of four the neck or breast;~I' the sixth
47    38|       sandy plain below,~Next, neck and muzzle, legs and belly
48    39|        And wherefore tethered, neck and heels, so fast.~ ~ LX~
49    41|        with the leash upon his neck:~The motto; TILL HE COMES:
50    41|       his head should from his neck have shorn;~But this forbids
51    42|       Loosed was the helm, the neck without its band:~So, like
52    43|      close,~Her arms about his neck Argia threw:~A burst of
53    45|     woman dread,~Chains on his neck and hands and feet they
54    45|   latest pain.~There round the neck of their unwary guide,~Who
55    46|    love, and stooping low,~His neck encircles with a fast embrace.~
56    46|      awakes again,~Whom by the neck he with strong arm has caught,~
57    46|     rage, his foe~Takes by the neck and shoulders, and now bends~
