Canto

 1     1|         like an Aetna glowed.~ ~ XLI~"Thought which now makes
 2     2|          hope and peace away.~ ~ XLI~"Six days I rode, from morn
 3     3|        the neighbouring main:~ ~ XLI~"And that fair town, whose
 4     4|        greet the damsel true;~ ~ XLI~As her he prized before
 5     5|         yielded up the ghost.~ ~ XLI~"With wounded heart, and
 6     6|     rashness, climb the fish.~ ~ XLI~"To Dudon and Rinaldo's
 7     7|   preserved, not of his fame.~ ~ XLI~And thus such gentle knight
 8     8|        is yet thy cruel will.~ ~ XLI~"But what worse torment
 9     9|       his, would seek my bed.~ ~ XLI~"Behind the curtains, I
10    10|     those three damsels fair.~ ~ XLI~As loud as she could raise
11    11|         from the anchor hung.~ ~ XLI~So swimming till the island
12    12|          am, on both of you."~ ~ XLI~"Oh!" (to Circassia's king
13    13|         purpose he had found.~ ~ XLI~He after drags them bound
14    14|   meanwhile the lady sleeps."~ ~ XLI~He who for scorn had daffed
15    15|       arrow leaves behind: --~ ~ XLI~Erst Argalia's courser,
16    16|          Lancaster, are seen.~ ~ XLI~The paladin rode on, along
17    17|     flesh of woman never fed.~ ~ XLI~" `Of this you may behold
18    18|          routs on every side.~ ~ XLI~While so the battle stands,
19    19|     France from Spain divide.~ ~ XLI~Within Valencia or Barcelona'
20    20|       for your love to spill.~ ~ XLI~" `But since deprived of
21    21|     whither to recur for aid.~ ~ XLI~" `Of my lord's absence
22    22|         from his cruel pains.~ ~ XLI~"I fled, not to behold such
23    23|        of the murderous deed.~ ~ XLI~The hag to wait was ordered
24    24|      threatens her with pain.~ ~ XLI~"I will, if so this woman
25    25|        beholders for a maid.~ ~  XLI~"Because perceiving vantage
26    26|        and the crowd offends.~ ~ XLI~"From the beginning even
27    27|        his claim should stir.~ ~ XLI~As well Marphisa to Troyano'
28    28|          the Agnus Dei swear.~ ~ XLI~"He made him swear that
29    29| approached Anglantes' knight.~ ~ XLI~Orlando running thus his
30    30|        selfsame day set free.~ ~ XLI~"And even yet they marvel
31    31|          quarrel make an end.~ ~ XLI~They -- erst at feud and
32    32|          for my wrongs delay.~ ~ XLI~"If of all human sins of
33    33|    Franks maintain the field;~ ~ XLI~"And, for Ravenna sacked
34    34|        who or what the wight.~ ~ XLI~"When I perceive that, through
35    35|      bridge his wonted stand;~ ~ XLI~And as the maid appears
36    36|         more hard than stone.~ ~ XLI~Would she not, could she
37    37|        his phrensy to oppose.~ ~ XLI~"For he has spread such
38    38|       best, and that pursue."~ ~ XLI~He said; and on Marsilius
39    39|        find the warrior bold.~ ~ XLI~She knowing old Bardino
40    40|       hath recourse for aid.~ ~  XLI~Jugurtha, martial Hannibal,
41    41|     results not, if you lose.~ ~ XLI~"Were good Orlando and we
42    42|       life so grieved before.~ ~ XLI~No power hath he to make
43    43|      fall, her woeful cheeks.~ ~ XLI~"Shame stings her sore,
44    44|           and thus she spake.~ ~ XLI~"Ah! shall I will what she
45    45|       cruel death was doomed.~ ~ XLI~The cruelty which by that
46    46|      have straight replaced.~ ~  XLI~"That I Rogero hated, ere
