 1     1|        rate as high,~His warlike prowess puts to present test;~Cuts
 2     1|          what praise of old~Your prowess ever won with sword and
 3     2|      proved among~The first, her prowess, tried by many a test,~Equal
 4     2|          on the tented plain~The prowess of that valiant maid to
 5     3|     Shall with the rumour of his prowess ring:~Where he shall strive
 6     4|       base.~She sees in him, her prowess has laid low,~A venerable
 7     6| illustrious Brava's pride,~Whose prowess freed us from that dark
 8     6|     behalf, to pray~You will the prowess of your arm assay.~ ~ LXXVIII~"
 9    11|         Shall valour prove their prowess as of yore.~ ~ XXVII~Through
10    11|    Prompter to do, than make his prowess known.~Nor e'er was bruited
11    12|          him esteems a knight of prowess high,~Which, fondly, he
12    14|           When it is time, their prowess to recite.~ ~ XVII~When
13    14|          A knight, with heart or prowess gifted more.~To him much
14    15|        discourse afford~Orrilo's prowess, and the marvel wrought;~
15    16|        Entrusted squadron mighty prowess showed;~Filling with dread
16    18|        Ever to prove her warlike prowess bent)~"I will be with you
17    18|    erthrew,~Famous for price and prowess, many a knight.~To the outlet
18    18|     speed,~Who have few peers in prowess, on their way.~Dismist by
19    19|      dames at pleasure may their prowess try,~And shall in lists
20    20|           Such proof of thy fair prowess have I made,~With thee I
21    20|          roam alone,~Who fear no prowess greater than their own.~ ~
22    22|       the career~Smith with such prowess. That the guerdon due~To
23    23|        peerless might.~He of his prowess gave high proofs and full,~
24    24|         cannot with its lord his prowess prove!'~ ~ LVIII~Zerbino
25    25|      would in time and place his prowess shew.~'Twas now that better
26    26|           He fain by proof their prowess would have tried,~And if
27    26|          To prove how great your prowess in the field;~But, since '
28    26|       blade~Most deadly signs of prowess should be shown,~Mid that
29    27|          more gay:~Who knows the prowess of those two preferred~Will
30    27|     Whose paragon, for heart and prowess tried,~Meseems no ancient
31    29|       How can a fool such mighty prowess show?"~Between his teeth,
32    30|       arms will make his martial prowess known,~As for the rest,
33    31|        whom few~In valour and in prowess go before,~And if they join
34    32|         champions but to them in prowess yield,~The same that she
35    32|           of those cavaliers~The prowess and the pith a-fire to prove,~
36    33|          none~A clearer proof of prowess to display;~And who desires,
37    34|    knight, for warlike skill~And prowess, upon earth without a peer;~
38    35|  understand,~Before we prove our prowess with the spear:~You shall
39    36|         their knight such mighty prowess show;~Their knight, but
40    37|          put to proof withal, if prowess more~Or cruelty prevails
41    37|       tyrant's horn;~And now his prowess is so little feared,~That
42    38|       espied ere now~Her martial prowess, tried by goodly test,~When
43    38|     Orlando's show;~Whose mighty prowess I have proved in part,~In
44    40|        or elsewhere,~All give of prowess shining proofs and rare.~ ~
45    41|        with less vigour and less prowess steeled,~At least in courtesy
46    42|          King Charles, exalt his prowess evermore.~ ~ LX~The stranger
47    43|         the knight~For him whose prowess he had proved in fight.~ ~
48    44|           They best can tell his prowess with the spear."~Meanwhile,
49    44|        what it may,~Dexterity or prowess, worth, or wit,~Or goodness --
50    44|        damsel) save he shew~More prowess than myself, to any lord.~
51    44|     cannot choose, though so his prowess harms,~But praise that peer
52    45|       for his bride,~That of her prowess in the field fell short;~
53    45|     lance must with the maid his prowess try.~These news the Grecian
54    45|          Sometimes he thinks his prowess to belie,~And offer to her
55    46|       hath its seat,~Was of more prowess than the youthful knight;~
