Canto

 1     3|           about,~Shone through the gate, and lit the cave without.~ ~
 2     4|            XVI~Not long within his gate the enchanter stayed,~After
 3     5|         appear,~And now before the gate their coursers stand.~To
 4     5|            in Rinaldo's brand.~The gate was shut, and to the porter
 5     6|            plain, conducted to the gate;~And by that safer road
 6     6|            issuing from the city's gate,~Whose wall appeared like
 7     6|           returning to that golden gate.~ ~ LXXI~Above, a cornice
 8     7|          some way beyond the outer gate;~And, girded by a gay and
 9     7|    pricking forth drew near unto a gate,~Whence the road led to
10     8|           as I said,~Armed, to the gate on Rabican did ride;~Found
11     8|        heard~How he had forced the gate, and, in the press,~Slaughtered
12     8|          So changed, drew nigh the gate; and there the peer~Approached
13     9|       numerous squadron, which the gate maintain;~As well, because
14     9|   ambuscade did lay;~When from the gate he with as many hied:~As
15     9|            cavalier;~Makes for the gate, and would the drawbridge
16     9|           drawbridge and of either gate.~Thanks to his swifter steed,
17     9| dungeon-key,~But breaking-down the gate, their entrance made;~Bireno
18    12|         Sore pricking, enters at a gate of gold.~Nor Brigliador
19    12|            far away, through other gate conveyed."~So thinking,
20    14|           Mindless Oblivion at the gate is found,~Who lets none
21    15|            a fierce assault upon a gate:~For while the cruel battle
22    15|     Caligorant was standing at the gate~(For so was the despiteous
23    15|        dread,~Wont even to Cairo's gate the road to scower.~Him
24    16|       Agramant prepared~To storm a gate, and to the assault was
25    16|            Martin's and St. Denys' gate,~They might convey the aid
26    17|          sublime and royal house's gate.~To their life's peril,
27    17|         Origille, before~Damascus' gate, and him who with her came,~
28    17|           And bending to Damascus' gate his way,~Arrived an hour
29    17|        richly dight~Stood nigh the gate, to which Sir Gryphon rode.~
30    17|             by ill fortune, to the gate resort,~He by the king is
31    18|          these at Saint Marcellus' gate, where lay,~Outstretched
32    18|           In following t'wards the gate the martial maid,~(The mob

34    20|             LXXXV~Toward the other gate Sir Guido went,~Hurrying
35    20|           wound,~Not only they the gate unguarded left,~But from

37    22|            they~Reached bridge and gate, the place of forfeitry,~
38    22|            in eager hurry from the gate~An elder trotting on hackney
