 7     3|        Lo! forth of that first cave what countless swarm~Presses
 8     3|        circle, troops into the cave,~Where stands that beauteous
 9     3|        the maid reposes in the cave,~And the best part in talk
10     7|    length to find the wondrous cave she thought,~Where the prophetic
11     8|   track her steed,~To the dark cave recurred the hermit hoar,~
12    10|        my bleeding body to his cave."~So saying she her golden
13    10|         sainted elder made the cave,~In which men cleansed from

15    11|      stalls on either side the cave, defended~His charge from

19    12|       right.~ ~ XCI~In the mid cave, beside a fire was seen~
20    13|        wood,~In valley, and in cave, wherein the bear,~Serpent,
21    13|   drags them bound without the cave,~Where an old service-tree
22    13|        end.~Why was not in the cave thy wish made known,~Where
23    14|        round;~And it is here a cave runs under ground.~ ~ XCIII~
24    15|        this I seek the giant's cave.~ ~  XLVII~"I with dishonour
25    17|     score.~With him within the cave a matron tarried,~Who marked
26    17|    this, before he reached the cave, was seen.~Three youths

29    17|        made reply,~That he the cave would not abandon, ere~He
30    17|        saw her prisoned in the cave alone,~Into the orc's wide
31    17|       orc, at eve, when to the cave again~He brings the herd,
