Canto

 1     1|           XXI~The peer's proposal pleased the paynim well.~And so
 2     4|          into France conveyed,~Be pleased to free my miserable sprite~
 3     5|   approached the fraudful foe,~So pleased to work Geneura's infamy;~
 4     6|           soon as seen, my aspect pleased the fay;~Who showed it in
 5     8|         If she with mortal man is pleased to sport.~ ~ LI~It here
 6     9|         took but pleasure~In what pleased me, nor would my will constrain;~
 7    12|       speed her panting mare;~Ill pleased the three assembled to discern,~
 8    12|         seemed most opportune and pleased her best.~After much country
 9    12|           In other canto, sir, be pleased to attend~The rest, for
10    15|         sister and the white~Were pleased the furious battle to defer,~
11    15|          mouth away:~ ~ LXXXV~Yet pleased Astolpho had not in like
12    17|     resembling this we celebrate.~Pleased of that time the memory
13    18|        pair;~Who, whether Fortune pleased to smile or frown,~Served
14    19|        And after followed whither pleased the maid,~Who was to stay
15    19|          coming day~They would be pleased beneath his roof to stay.~ ~
16    24|      Almonio cried, "Since God is pleased in the end,~Grammercy! Isabel
17    24|               LXXVIII~"So be thou pleased, my heart," (Zerbino cried,)~"
18    24|       warriors swore;~Since so it pleased her well, who either swayed.~
19    27|         Who heard; and, Sir -- if pleased to lend an ear --~To their
20    28|           the world confest.~This pleased the monarch, who the praise
21    28|    Latinus, one of his array,~Who pleased the king, a Roman cavalier,~
22    28|          gift the husband is well pleased to take;~Not that a token
23    28|          their prey.'~The king is pleased to hear the youth impart~
24    28|     severe~The paynim scared, ill pleased the truth to read.~So that,
25    28|       tidings loathed to hear,~So pleased him, he for it renounced
26    29|          he upsprang in haste;~So pleased the wretched count her visage
27    30|     Descend on him whom Heaven is pleased to own!~Upon the vanquished
28    31| impatiently desired to view,~Much pleased the friendly troop; and,
29    32|      grieve:~For, had the gods so pleased my lot to bless,~As to require
30    33|       fashion said:~ ~ LXII~"What pleased was but a dream; alas! a
31    34|        that rare loveliness which pleased all eyes.~ ~ XVI~"There
32    34|           portion of our reign~He pleased, and pacify his fierce disdain.~ ~
33    37|          and caverned nook:~Which pleased the damsels and the youthful
34    37|        the wretch consigned,~Well pleased that such a care on her
35    37|         Fit penance for his sins, pleased great and small.~ ~ CVII~
36    39|      Moors received in France, be pleased to know.~ ~ LXVI~Well nigh
37    42|          mansion will this eve be pleased to inn.~ ~ LXXII~"For I
38    43|          day,~Beheld my wife, who pleased him so at sight,~He bore
39    43|        drest~In whatsoever figure pleased her best.~ ~ CVI~"She in
40    44|        shield.~On that emprize it pleased him not to bear~His argent
41    45|           royal Charlemagne.~Well pleased is he; and visits testify~
