Canto

 1     1|       soon as seen, the maid who rode at speed~The warrior knew,
 2     1|     LXXII~Two miles they had not rode before they hear~The sweeping
 3     2|         next, with flowing rein,~Rode, till the royal city rose
 4     2|         away.~ ~ XLI~"Six days I rode, from morn to setting sun,~
 5     2|          that the Indian monarch rode,~The fairest was that ever
 6     2|         to the dame to stay, and rode and cried.~This was the
 7     2|      panting courier, as I said,~Rode from Marseilles to ask the
 8     4|       Aurora shot~Her rosy rays, rode forth with spear and shield:~
 9     5|   Rinaldo through the empty city rode,~But in a hostel first the
10     6|       seen.~ ~ LXX~Into the mead rode this and the other dame,~
11     7|       wolf towards the pass; and rode~On sell, that rich beyond
12     7|  possessed~By that old strumpet, rode the cavalier;~And pricking
13     8|    teemed with certain prey;~And rode a hack which simple housings
14    13|         miles in narrow path had rode,~Before, by two fierce giants
15    14|        XXXVI~Nor he long was had rode, ere he descried~A passing-cruel
16    16|         of the city he in secret rode;~Nor to his brother would
17    16|         seen.~ ~ XLI~The paladin rode on, along the shore,~When
18    17|         and proudly tread.~Each, rode he well or ill, his art
19    17|       gate, to which Sir Gryphon rode.~Besides, that it was strong
20    20|          fair array,~The warrior rode on saddle richly wrought~
21    21|     vexed their silence, as they rode,~Was broke, when Sol his
22    21|           yet diseased and weak,~Rode, unsuspicious, at an easy
23    22|         him, and, sore troubled, rode away.~He with a mantle,
24    23|         the ley~Was feeding, and rode forth to meet the day.~ ~
25    23|       the day.~ ~ IX~Nor far had rode, ere from the greenwood-trees~
26    23|       plenteous fare;~Nor let be rode except at easy pace,~Hence
27    23|       ten weary miles the damsel rode,~Ere any crossed her path
28    23|       beldam might be drest,~And rode the horse that damsel backed
29    25|        daylight break.~ ~ LII~"I rode all night -- Love served
30    29|          bridge across the river rode,~Richly arraid and beautiful
31    32|         with the three kings who rode before.~These she o'ercomes,
32    35|           couched her spear,~And rode to meet the furious cavalier.~ ~
33    35|      steed.~ ~ LXIII~She forward rode, within the enclosure sped,~
34    36|          And, signing to Rogero, rode as wide~As she could wend
35    37|     bestow his aid.~ ~ XXVI~They rode an-end; and louder waxed
36    38| barbarick pomp, amid that train,~Rode Africk's monarch, ready
37    43|         guide, to Rimini~Rinaldo rode that very eye, nor stayed~
38    44|          of the Danube made,~And rode an-end until he reached
39    44|   thousand rank,~Along the river rode the Grecian knight;~And
40    46|  Rodomont.~ ~ CXXVI~He at Rogero rode, who that rude shock~Shunned
