Canto

 1     4|      descended slow,~Until she reached the plain beneath the tower.~
 2     5|   LVIII~" `Who said, before he reached that frowning crest,~To
 3     7|     Alcina's head;~Her stature reached not to six palms in height,~
 4     9|     profound,~Which scarce has reached -- but touched it, ere the
 5    10|      to the Hyrcanian main:~So reached Sarmatia's distant land;
 6    12|      Angelica, this while, has reached a fount,~Of pleasant site,
 7    12|        seen, a forest gray~She reached, where, sorely wounded in
 8    14|      Rome.~ ~ LXVI~Tidings had reached the Moorish sovereign's
 9    16|      his whole array,~Until he reached the quarters of the Moor,~
10    16|      the rider as he fled,~But reached the horse's croup, and stretched
11    17|     sheep,~And this, before he reached the cave, was seen.~Three
12    17|       a man supplies,~Until he reached the cave of which I said,~
13    18|    prest~Proud Paris, and they reached the river strand,~Exactly
14    18|   Origille untrue;~And till he reached Damascus' lofty piles,~Them
15    18|        And halt when they have reached the barricade.~Gryphon and
16    19|       done the deed)~The arrow reached -- transfixed the wretch'
17    20|      no more.~ ~ II~Women have reached the pinnacle of glory,~In
18    20|     grief opprest.~ ~ VII~"But reached not France, for southern
19    22|   twain,~After long round, and reached in fine the spot~Where so
20    22|     miles had fared, when they~Reached bridge and gate, the place
21    23|    tidings of his way.~Orlando reached a rill of crystal vein,~
22    23|    cause to see.~-- But I have reached such point, my history,~
23    24|        own;~For my disease has reached the very bone.~ ~ IV~I in
24    24|     Throughout all France, and reached a bridge one day;~Beneath
25    24| pricked by hill and plain,~She reached the passage of a river,
26    25|       ancient road again,~They reached a city, with the westering
27    25|    fast my sister pricked, she reached that day~Mount Alban; we
28    26| another way~Had taken, when he reached the mountain, read;~And
29    26|      ride~Till she Mount Alban reached at evening-tide.~ ~ XCI~
30    26|       course,~An arrow had not reached the flying horse.~ ~ CXXXI~
31    28|     and, after few days' ride,~Reached Rome, and his paternal mansion
32    29|      him misguides:~At last he reached the hill whose boundary
33    29|       sun his visage hides,~He reached a path upon the rugged steep,~
34    30|       the faulchion stayed:~It reached his armour (like soft wax,
35    30|    beside a page~To serve him, reached that famous fortilage.~ ~
36    31|     came;~Because, before they reached their place of rest,~The
37    31|    abate their talk, those two~Reached the pavilions where the
38    32|      Sir Tristram and his lady reached the Hall,~When now the sun
39    33|    Sericana's lord.~Him oft he reached where casque and coat confined,~
40    33|      of the Moor,~In Albajada, reached the Nubian's bound;~Left
41    34|      swiftly rose the car,~And reached the region of eternal fire;~
42    35|          VII~"Such exaltation, reached so suddenly,~Is not fortuitous
43    37|       name,~As haply ne'er was reached by manly fame.~ ~ III~To
44    37|      the troop.~ ~ XCVIII~They reached a summit, and from thence
45    41|        clear,~The holy man had reached his eightieth year.~ ~ LIX~
46    42|       Mantua, in his rear,~And reached and past the Po, with swift
47    42|      wish unsought:~Forward he reached his hand and took the vase,~
48    43|        was done;~And well nigh reached Urbino with the sun.~ ~
49    44|       wings expand;~ ~ XXIV~He reached Sardinia at one flight and
50    44|       And rode an-end until he reached Belgrade.~ ~ LXXIX~Where
51    46|      steeds Frontino's ear~Had reached, and thither had he quickly
52    46|       Than half a league, they reached an abbey hoar:~ ~ XLVIII~
