 1     1|        fierce Ferrau in grisly plight,~Begrimed with dust, and
 2     1|       promise which was whilom plight;~And from the stream departing
 3     1|  Sacripant laments him in this plight,~And makes a tepid fountain
 4     6|     that lady dear, my promise plight,~Who in her keeping has
 5     7|      conclusion the two lovers plight~Their word, to meet together
 6     8|   hence I am reduced to such a plight,~That wandering evermore,
 7     8|      as suited to his mournful plight,~That erst he from an Amostantes
 8     9|     his faith and promise duly plight,~That he will do a battle,
 9     9|   harboured there in shattered plight,~The weary mariners their
10     9|       to my gentle lover I had plight;~Nor though I had the power,
11     9|     had my solemn word already plight~That me to wedlock man should
12     9|     when I shall be in captive plight,~And he has put all tortures
13    10|         and now certain of her plight:~She beat her bosom, and
14    14|      he, to mark the bulwark's plight~Nor if the fosse of certain
15    16|        French beheld his cruel plight,~For whom he love and much
16    19| bedaubed like swine, in filthy plight,~And smeared with mud, face,
17    19|         and helpless was their plight,~And a full victory the

19    21|      defend his promise he had plight~From all men, to the utmost
20    22|       the cause of her unhappy plight,~Him, since he sought it,
21    22|      who for Sir Pinnabel have plight~Their promise to maintain
22    24|       compassion, in afflicted plight;~And went about, collecting
23    25|    groans and weeps in piteous plight,~Because her wild desire
24    25|    bethinks him of the promise plight~To meet at Vallombrosa's
25    26| Already either had his promise plight,~He nought unknown to his
26    26|     violated twice the compact plight.~ ~ CVII~First, in belief
27    26|       condition was the treaty plight,~And the accord between
28    27|     succinct Marphisa sate; in plight~Such as beseemed a warrior
29    27|       one has kept her promise plight."~And should not the event
30    28|       ruddy, gay, and plump in plight,~And seems a cherubim of
31    28|    parforce the promise he had plight;~And gulped his anger down
32    28|      care for his good horse's plight,~As is becoming a good cavalier,~
33    28|      she was questioned of her plight,~She would with holy works --
34    30|       not be reduced to worser plight;~Who prompts what sore repents
35    30|       ill observed his promise plight.~ ~ LXXXVI~But in that he
36    31|   Rinaldo paused: he cried, "I plight~My promise not to balk thee
37    31|       afflicted and in piteous plight~The broken bands of Afric
38    33| Leaving his foe behind in evil plight;~-- Never more malcontent
39    35|    that they knew his pitiable plight.~ ~ LXXIV~The third encounter
40    39|   seeing him in such a piteous plight,~Were filled with grief
41    40| Agramant had broke the promise plight:~He loves that king, and
42    43|        gift, nor promise often plight,~Nor yet because she never
43    44|       sister to the Child hath plight,~And to Marseilles is with
44    44|     him, and alone~He dared to plight his daughter, whom he fain~
45    44|       to me your royal promise plight,~To grant my prayer; and
