Canto

 1     4|  Covered all o'er with silk of crimson hue;~In his right-hand he
 2     4|     shield,~But in its case of crimson silk concealed.~ ~ XLIII~
 3     6|      with a face suffused with crimson, he~In answer to the groaning
 4     8|      bare.~ ~ XI~He raised the crimson cloth in which he wore~The
 5     9|     green, white and black, to crimson stain.~Cymosco grieves,
 6    10|       Desmond on white field a crimson bend.~Nor only England,
 7    10|        but show like grain,~Of crimson spreading on an ivory ground;~
 8    14|   worth may know.~ ~ CXIV~With crimson Rodomont his banner stains,~
 9    14|     streaming from the wall of crimson blood.~ ~  CXXII~He drops
10    16|       mantle green for robe of crimson hue~Earth shifts, ensanguined
11    18|        of white, suffused with crimson grain,~Medoro had, in youth
12    19|    with virtue to restrain~The crimson blood forth-welling, and
13    20|     That all a face of burning crimson wore.~One dares not eye
14    20|      Not only was his cheek of crimson dye,~Such shame Zerbino
15    22|       er~With snowy flowers, a crimson surcoat wore.~ ~ LXIII~Bradamant
16    22|        he, " 'Tis Sansonet; of crimson hue,~I know his surcoat,
17    24|        feet descending, with a crimson line,~Stains the bright
18    24|       lady, during this, whose crimson dyes~Where chased by dread,
19    26|    comrades view,~With arms of crimson, face of pallid, hue.~ ~
20    27|         Or rather in a lake of crimson laid,~Horribly weltering
21    30|     lips more deeply dyed~Than crimson rose, himself in tears,
22    30|      sprang the tepid blood of crimson stain;~Hence Mandricardo'
23    31| blocked, and widely stain~With crimson what before was white and
24    32|      scatters mingled with the crimson rose.~Nor less desires the
25    33|     green earth is tinged with crimson dye.~Flooded with human
26    33|        overspread~With glowing crimson by the new-born sun,~And
27    33|       upbear.~Of green, white, crimson, blue and yellow ground,~
28    34|        than the carbuncle more crimson bright,~It seemed one polished
29    34|        towards Astolpho prest;~Crimson his waistcoat was, and white
30    35|       All over with the rose's crimson grain.~She after added, "
31    36|  Rogero's face is flushed with crimson hue,~And his heart throbs,
32    37|     the rich dyes of Paestum's crimson rose,~When vernal airs their
33    42|  remained~So fast from him the crimson blood had drained.~ ~  XIX~

35    44|        descried~A cavalier, in crimson vest, whereon~With all its
36    44|       Wore for his blazon on a crimson shield,~To him all flock,
37    45|        head~He blazoned on the crimson shield doth bear;~And (what
38    46|       with its two heads -- of crimson hue~Its field -- and that
