Canto

 1     2|    ARGUMENT~A hermit parts, by means of hollow sprite,~The two
 2     2|      that hold,~Sought but the means to try the deep descent.~
 3     2|        Which furnished present means for her intent:~And from
 4     4|        Which furnished man the means to climb the hill.~The castle
 5     4|        resolved would find the means to die.~But ope thy gates
 6     4|       s grace, if through your means he see~His honour raised
 7     5|     enjoy content,~When I find means his wishes to fulfil:~And
 8     7|    found in guise~Which no new means of slippery fraud supplies.~ ~
 9     8|      his powers and might,~His means at Charlemagne's disposal
10     9|        durance pent;~Nor other means to succour him remain;~Save
11    10|    savage squadron's head,~Who means with Moorish blood to paint
12    11|        lament me that, through means of thee,~This day did not
13    11|        forbear,~Waged with all means that Ireland can afford;~
14    12|      in vain,~He (for no other means remained to try)~Would lastly
15    16|       He bridge, and boat, and means to pass the Seine,~Had with
16    16|   XXXIII~"Two princes, by your means, will rescued be,~If you
17    18|        hand assist.~ ~ XXXI~Of means to embroil the Sarzan and
18    18|    these two is won;~And other means may work upon the rest.~
19    18|         With her I planned the means, who in her breast~Nursed
20    19|    course or larboard more,~No means were left them by the cruel
21    20|      stipend, know~That better means are wanted to maintain~So
22    20|   cavaliers~Should through his means for ever captive be;~Nor,
23    20|        What seemed the fittest means for their escape.~ ~ LXXX~
24    23|    made.~But his through other means a rein will be;~Since Fortune,
25    23|      Mandricardo through their means might know,~If such his
26    27|    jars arise,~And strife; and means to still their enmity~Their
27    27|      it need,~And every better means of battle fail,~With thee
28    27|  should wend;~That through his means the monarch, brought thus
29    29| compass his intent;~And be the means to make her wrong so sore~
30    29|       refuge for her woes,~And means to save her chastity from
31    29|    revive her memory,~He, as a means to compass his intent,~Would
32    31|     discover him, to find~Some means of cure for his distempered
33    33|  conflicting foes,~Passing all means and measure; but so pure,~
34    33|        slay the monsters I all means will try,~Or drive them
35    34|     since, it seemed, he other means designed,~Never to love
36    35|      hostile, had he known~The means to make the tuneful tribe
37    35|       husband and my lord;~All means and measures there resolved
38    36|        due defence would every means provide,~And every peril,
39    36|   foregoes;~And either now new means of mischief planned.~Rogero
40    36|      will all measures and all means assay,~Whereby some fair
41    37|    tomb encase,~And, with what means the town supplies, adorn.~
42    39|        him, he thinks upon~The means, and stands afflicted and
43    42|  appears subdued:~Nor seeks he means of fence against his foe,~
44    43|      mother bore,~But of small means, in humble home and poor.~ ~
45    43|         Yet cannot he discover means or way~For learning where
46    44|      Resolved to tax her every means and might~To make her empress
47    45|     And put into his heart the means to aid,~And not to let such
