Canto

 1     2|         of Bayardo freed,~You may believe the battle does not sleep~
 2     5|            prepare to hear;~And I believe, that if the circling sun~
 3     5|           beloved; I, on my side,~Believe the same; this try we by
 4     5|          XXXIX~" `This will I not believe,' in answer cried~Ariodantes, `
 5     6|     swiftness equalling.~I scarce believe that bolt, or lightning
 6     7|             XVII~No! he could now believe, by magic art,~Astolpho
 7     7|           Alcina's bondsman could believe;~And (for the world the
 8     9|      worth to you belong;~And you believe to give me or withhold~Is
 9    10|           he~Scorns them, who yet believe they beauteous are,~Kindled
10    12|      slays his following;~Who all believe him at their backs to be.~
11    14|        this other hell~(Who would believe it?) amid mass and prayer.~
12    16|           Gryphon good;~Makes him believe that other not to be~Her
13    16|          at every shake.~My lord, believe, you never yet espied~Bombard
14    16|    enterprise should ill succeed,~Believe me, only while these walls
15    16|       mail.~The fourth division I believe was best,~Which, under Isolier,
16    19|        This for the love of life, believe me, say.~So much, no longer,
17    21|      horse.~ ~ ~ I~No cord I well believe is wound so tight~Round
18    23|  ermastering woe.~This is a pang, believe the experienced say~Of him
19    25|           not aid; my spear~Is, I believe, sufficient to the feat.~
20    25|          designs, would every one believe,~That any preference of
21    26|           true,~And leaves men to believe what they think right,~Says
22    26|   youthful warrior's hand,~I well believe that the descending pest~
23    27|       camp she flies,~Then thus: "Believe worse vengeance yet in store,~
24    27|         bereaved;~And so too must believe this noble knight,~Unless
25    28|        warrant it, that other may believe,~Is better than to make
26    28|        recall.~He here (who would believe the story?) found~A remedy
27    28|          descries;~Yet hardly can believe his very eyes.~ ~ XXXIV~"
28    28|         by Rose)~ ~ XLIV~"You may believe he shameless deemed that
29    28|     damsel, full of pity, cries:~`Believe, I covet this no less than
30    28|       suspended.~Then -- "Fully I believe," that paynim cried,~"The
31    28|       fable one.~ ~ LXXVII~"Him I believe not, that told this truth
32    29|         whosoever reads me, shall believe~He had better held -- aye,
33    30|       tears the lady shed,~Nor, I believe, would ever have given o'
34    30|           maid:~Yet would she not believe; but hung between~Her hopes
35    32|      others he that warrior shall believe,~Do they to his or other
36    34|           of your desire surmise,~Believe, you not without high mystery
37    35|            or to Paradise;~For, I believe, mine is not lodged so high.~
38    35|          arts proscribe.~ ~ XXIV~"Believe it, that these ignorant
39    35|         do.~ ~ XLIV~"But if, as I believe and trust, you fall,~I will
40    36|         Rogero and Marphisa mine, believe!~The tale which I deliver
41    38| ill-omened power.~ ~ XLIV~"I well believe, that from some neighbouring
42    41|          upon Mary's Son he would believe.~ ~ XXXIX~He said: "For
43    43|         to her lure.~-- Who could believe? -- unloving, in a day~They
44    43|           of life possest.~I well believe I in a year had died,~But
45    43|          have made an end.~I well believe two winters were not done,~
46    44|      splendor all account;~If all believe our other chivalry~They,
47    45|         in open show,~As I unseen believe it, should I find;~And be
48    45|          his eyes)~You are not to believe that more content~The Lady
49    45|          or falsely spake,~I well believe that, rather with intent~
50    45|          confusion, they may well believe~That fierce Marphisa speaks
51    45|       true which ye have feigned,~Believe not therefore that your
52    45|          yet allow,~And what I to believe as yet demur;~That weakly
53    45|    sovereign lord~Will forfeit, I believe, his plighted word.~ ~ CXI~"
