Canto

 1     2|         his will,~Stirred up the waves; and, 'mid the gathering
 2     3|     repose,~And pray that stormy waves may lash the beach.~I pass,
 3     3|        go,~Beside the sea, whose waves will soon appear;~Thee the
 4     5|      ocean hung,~Into the raging waves he headlong sprung;~ ~ LVIII~" `
 5     6|        was nigh drowned amid the waves that rise;~For a south-wind
 6     7|           from Hydaspes' distant waves have spread,~To where the
 7     8|          keeping to the rippling waves her horse,~Where best the
 8     8|        Left him to burn amid the waves: surveyed,~One day alone,
 9     8|        since not always wind and waves convey~Like plunder, upon
10     9|   compress'd~By ocean's circling waves, the cruellest.~ ~ XII~"
11    10|      From the high rock amid the waves to leap.~But from the water
12    10|     second peer;~A pine amid the waves the latter knight.~The next
13    10|        yielding air,~Whose briny waves the lesser Britain lave;~
14    10|       his huge tail the troubled waves so sore~The monster beats,
15    11|          be said to keep it all.~Waves roar: collected in himself,
16    11|      Whose scaly flanks upon the waves expand;~And now descends
17    11|       eye its bottom through the waves might view.~And now he splashed
18    11|        fury spread,~Which in the waves would doom Orlando dead.~ ~
19    12|       Beginning now from ice its waves to free,~And the fresh-springing
20    14|       spot as this with circling waves~Below Otricoli the Tyber
21    14|          trees upon its back, or waves that beat~(What time the
22    15|   Quitting the port and smoother waves, they stand~To sea, with
23    16|          your island strong, the waves among.~For if, from far
24    17|          course 'mid threatening waves explore;~Then, wet and weary,
25    18|          buffets of the dreadful waves which fell;~Never without
26    19| abatement yet has shown.~ ~ XLIV~Waves lifted by the waxing tempest
27    19|   hurried through~Their tumbling waves the shattered bark along,~
28    25|      sound,~And, there, amid the waves, a naked maid~Caught on
29    30|          XII~He plunged into the waves, at last, parforce;~For
30    31|      breast and flanks above the waves he rose,~And Brandimart
31    32|         that roll~Their restless waves beyond the northern pole.~ ~

33    33|      bridge destroyed by wasting waves and wind.~ ~ XVIII~"Burgundian
34    35|    Issued upon the stream, whose waves appear~Turbid with sand
35    35|          Is saved of those which waves and sand o'errun.~ ~  XIII~
36    37|          like sea, when wind and waves contend:~Towards the dame,

39    41|    appear to daunt that rout,~As waves which beat their troubled
40    41|          passage sought:~But the waves snapt and bore the helm
41    41|    prized,~Fears in these bitter waves to be baptized.~ ~ XLVIII~
