Canto

 1   Int| importance: Astolfo, a Peer and friend of Orlando, who is kidnaped
 2     1|         a cavalier.~ ~ XXXIX~If friend or foe, she nothing comprehends,~(
 3     4|         we scarcely find~A real friend, through various chances
 4     4|         Iroldo, too, Prasildo's friend sincere.~And there, at last,
 5     7|         But seeks her cherished friend with fruitless care,~Divided
 6     9| interposed with kindly lore,~As friend of both, the parties to
 7    13|         faithful and his truest friend:~And such had been, if benefits
 8    13|      trust,~The pleasure of his friend to what was just.~ ~ XXV~"
 9    13|   ancient woman, the assassin's friend,~Escapes when she perceives
10    13| Companion, lady-love, or absent friend;~Whatever is each several
11    14|       Corineus, the sovereign's friend.~So (late Tanphirion's)
12    15|          I see,~Upon a faithful friend, rejoicing more,~And on
13    20|        nigh.~ ~ XCIII~For so to friend as stranger, noxious are~
14    21|   bewail when dead his faithful friend.'~ ~ XXXIV~"Thus oftentimes
15    21|       have believed: to aid his friend~Intent, (strange chance!)
16    21|     bosom bore~The image of his friend so rashly slain;~By this
17    22|        much thought, he to some friend would fain~Present him,
18    23|       his foeman out, to take a friend,~Who him with arms might
19    24|      disloyal to his prince and friend,~In company with that curst
20    24|    truce and peace disposed her friend,~As well Zerbino, by the
21    26|      fair;~And vows himself his friend, with generous heart,~In
22    27|       his sovereign see, a real friend~Was aye to be preferred
23    28|      his coming taught,~As of a friend's arrival he could be;~Since
24    28|       at all,~If otherwise your friend Valerio said,~He was by

26    31|         man can love a brother, friend, or son,~Disposed to seek
27    37|      foes, and woman's faithful friend;~ ~ CXVII~And, if he then
28    38|    chanced, one changed me to a friend.~ ~ XIV~"When to worst harm
29    39|      bore;~All comforting their friend, with grief opprest~For
30    40|    Italian plain~Was driven the friend that aided him whilere,~
31    41|        hand,~Fair reasons, as a friend, the faithful knight~Pressed
32    42|      injury is done~To kinsman, friend or lord before our eyes.~
33    42|       he refuses either valiant friend:~From Paris he departs,
34    45|       abased;~How soon she is a friend, how soon a foe;~She makes
35    46|       known me for thy faithful friend and true;~Not only now I
