 1     1|       Till to a sylvan river's bank he came.~ ~ XIV~Here stood
 2     1|         Since bending from the bank, in hasty mood,~He dropped
 3     1|     air.~The cavalier upon the bank descends;~And sits so motionless,
 4     2|   melancholy dream;~And on the bank, which gaudy flowers displayed,~
 5     6|      hill,~Moist meadow, shady bank, and crystal rill.~ ~ XXI~
 6     8|    explore~The island's lonely bank, a gallery creeps;~Where,
 7     9|            IX~The paladin this bank and the other eyed,~Along
 8    10|    from the shore,~To the safe bank approached the pilot hoar.~ ~
 9    10|       the white foam on either bank was shed~The deafening noise
10    10|        into the main.~Upon the bank there rose an oakwood hoar,~
11    12|        And there, like wall or bank, discerned in front,~Of
12    13|    where~It stands on Mincius' bank, in other age~Shall gild
13    14|        pierced below.~Upon its bank, beneath a cooling shade,~
14    14|   intertwine.~Though they from bank to bank that hollow line,~
15    14|       Though they from bank to bank that hollow line,~Filling
16    15|          V~For he to the inner bank, by foes possest,~Across
17    15|        blood I see~On the left bank of Rhine a monarch bred;~
18    16|       the cavalier~Mounted the bank which overtopt the field,~
19    17|  strewed~On fattened field and bank, where on their way~Adda
20    19|      meadow stray,~Now to this bank, and to that other led:~
21    23|        crystal vein,~On either bank of which a meadow lay;~Which,
22    27|     the brine.~ ~ CXXVIII~From bank to bank the stream was covered
23    27|           CXXVIII~From bank to bank the stream was covered o'
24    29|    tower,~Him from the adverse bank that king defied:~The bridge
25    29|        and groaned the echoing bank.~ ~ XLVIII~Quickly the stream
26    29| extended there,~And gained the bank; nor, when upon the brim,~
27    29|      himself a dwelling on the bank,~ ~ LVIII~Where he somedeal
28    30|      parforce~Abandoned on the bank her mangled corse.~ ~ V~
29    30|        For many days along the bank he hied,~At hazard, ever
30    31|        XXXI~"Me on the distant bank of Euxine's flood~(I Guido
31    31|        on Cinyphus's barbarous bank.~ ~ LIX~Tidings to Charles
32    31|       vaulted skies and grassy bank.~So rang our stream, when
33    34|       s shore,~By Ebro's sunny bank, or other place,~As (hiding
34    35|      near that impious river's bank, they gain~A hill, and on
35    37|     New trophies he on Oglio's bank has shown;~For he, mid bark
36    37|       her despair,~From a high bank into a vale below;~But death
37    37|      Cast themselves down from bank and caverned nook:~Which
38    42|     sky,~When, doubting on the bank if he shall run~Another
39    44|       Hungary;~Along the right bank of the Danube made,~And
40    44|        his bridges placed~From bank to bank, and past the stream
41    44|    bridges placed~From bank to bank, and past the stream in
42    44|       squadrons on the farther bank,~Uniting bridge and bark
