Canto

 1     1|        Through dreary woods and dark the damsel fled,~By rude
 2     2|         horrid cliff, by bottom dark and drear;~And giddy precipice,
 3     2|        man were near.~At last a dark and barren vale I won,~Where
 4     2|        page,~Nor aught beside a dark and empty stage.~ ~ LVII~"
 5     2|    sight,~Amid those precipices dark and blind:~Its sides descended
 6     3|         shine like torch i' the dark,~Or whether force of spell
 7     3|     hope of thine exalted line.~Dark Fate and Fortune wreck not
 8     4|       through the dismal forest dark and drear;~While they towards
 9     6|      the voice began: "My story dark,~Forced by thy courteous
10     6|     beside~With me were pent in dark and hollow seat,~Thence,
11     6|      prowess freed us from that dark retreat,~Westward I fared
12     8|         track her steed,~To the dark cave recurred the hermit
13    13|         With squinting look and dark, and but one eye,~The leader
14    17|         mockery and scorn,~In a dark chamber, till returning
15    18|       grew more dismal and more dark than hell.~The wary Patron
16    18|       turned her face,~But that dark night upon the field descended,~
17    20|       Shall bid, while yet 'tis dark, prepare for sea;~Which
18    24|         I fear;~As, when in the dark cavern thou wast stayed,~
19    25|         and by his say~Made the dark path they trod less irksome
20    25|      has stayed~Imprisoned in a dark and evil cell;~Till the
21    26|       Made pass an angel of the dark domain;~And the good horse,
22    27| Horribly weltering in their own dark gore,~Beyond the leech's
23    29|         Which overhung a valley dark and deep.~ ~ LII~Here he
24    32|       Furies pity won,~In those dark realms that Rhadamanthus
25    32|         world, whose every nook dark shadows fill.~Arrived, that
26    33|        more.~ ~ CXXVIII~At that dark hellish inlet, which a way~
27    34|         pain which fits my sin, dark fumes now stain~My cheek,
28    39|      that from surprise~In that dark, dismal hour, amid his crew~
29    40|        deaths and woes,~On that dark night, when the redouted
30    40|     Hence Agramant, that by the dark deceived,~Had rated not
31    41|      gentle Flordelice for that dark array,~Was wrought the fairest
32    41|      fight,~He hopes to make it dark before 'tis night.~ ~ LXXXIII~
33    42|        stranger, when he to her dark retreat~Had driven from
34    42|         cavalier~Him from those dark and gloomy parts to steer.~ ~
35    43|        stied~Till death, in thy dark dungeon prisoned fast.~Of
36    43|     busy city wide,~A holt, and dark and dismal greenwood grows.~
37    44|           LXXIX~Where Save into dark Danube makes descent,~And
38    45|    gaoler slain~Is left in that dark dungeon in his place;~Nor
