Canto

 1     2|     confessed,~Won by her gentle speech and courteous show,~And
 2     3|       And silent listened to the speech; while she~Knew not, sore
 3     3|         gives it name in Grecian speech:~That, too, which fishy
 4     6|      hence a clear, intelligible speech~Thus issued, with a melancholy
 5     7|      skin.~ ~ LII~To imitate his speech, and face, and cheer,~She
 6     9|        The damsel so pursued her speech) "expire,~That thou wilt
 7     9|          the ponderous blade,~Of speech and life it reft him; I,
 8     9|        when this man and that by speech and dress~As Zealand-men
 9    10|        But to the music of their speech no ear~He lent, who weened
10    13|        how drowned~In grief (her speech by many a sob delayed),~
11    13|    Zerbino's aid:~For from their speech I gather, as a slave,~I
12    14|       intent to find that foe to speech,~To whom he first his high
13    14|       convent cell;~Where social speech is in such mode excluded,~
14    14|       And such benign and modest speech possest,~She might a Gabriel
15    16|          or if I ever said,~(Did speech or living page my thoughts
16    16|        Might good Rinaldo in his speech infer;~And with quick phrase
17    16|     squadrons, having closed his speech,~Softly, beneath their separate
18    20|   manners was the peer,~And of a speech so sweet and eloquent,~Him
19    20|      next assault as well should speech,~Not with a hundred women,
20    23|         Zerbino be.~ ~ LXIX~When speech returned, ere yet the maiden
21    23| languages, best read~Was in this speech; which oftentimes from wrong,~
22    25|         in kind mode and cunning speech,~Who him, although unknown,
23    25|          should woo,~Shaping her speech to this in wary mode,~My
24    26|       implores -- and frames his speech with art --~He his salutes
25    28|         through fear, he further speech forbore,~But changed not
26    29|    served and graced.~Behind her speech the count and hunts that
27    30|     sighs,~In such, or such like speech she him did pray,~Throughout
28    31|       since thou divinest not my speech,~To thee my meaning will
29    31|       with such mien and act her speech enforced,~It seemed of some
30    31|          if e'er with slanderous speech~Thou taxest me with aught
31    31|          part the bold Rinaldo's speech.~Not, as upon the former
32    32|       With reasons good, in wary speech combined,~Persuades that
33    33|      silence from the field~(For speech with all their hardihood
34    34|          blessed John;~Of whom a speech among the brethren went,~
35    35|          sore despite,~And if my speech diffusive should appear.~
36    36|     Weening that him she in that speech would blame,~For having
37    36|       fury to subdue~With gentle speech; but full of such despite~
38    36|         again~Her visage at that speech, rejoiced in sprite!~Rogero
39    37|       But who is honoured in her speech and page,~Shall burst the
40    37|          life, together with her speech, was spent;~And, even dead,
41    37|     manner to prevent~The use of speech, and prisoned in a chest.~
42    41|        it for a better coat with speech;~Albeit the Moorish king,
43    43|       and gave way;~And in brief speech and feeble said the dame~
44    43|       peasant say,~He scarce his speech with patience could sustain,~
45    44|      Meanwhile her lady-mother's speech gainsay;~To whom such reverence,
46    46|     Young Leo halts, to hear his speech intent;~Lights from his
47    46|          feet, and him in humble speech~Again to seek their Bulgary
48    46|      Mercury renowned~For fluent speech, about the child are seen:~
