Canto

 1     3|    youths, with vain illusions fed,~Whither by wicked men's
 2     5|     here my passion I as often fed~As good Geneura's absence
 3     5|        with hopes and words is fed;~And, more than this, your
 4     6|       of love, the kind Alcina fed~With full delights; nor
 5     6|     more than mortal pleasures fed,~Have from Alcina seigniory
 6     8|        those others slain, who fed,~All a devouring orc, that
 7     8|      in Love's toils his fancy fed:~Of those bright eyes, and
 8     9|       for his son, the hate he fed~Towards me, torment the
 9    10|        which on Bireno's bosom fed,~And to his marrow burned;
10    10|       which now upon her bosom fed:~And hence she made her
11    10|    Which on abominable food is fed.~How on the beach the maid
12    11|      Where the green grass was fed by freshening run:~While
13    11|      been too monstrous, had I fed~The beast, and in his belly
14    13|    where well their files they fed;~And next distributed the
15    14|        the slain, whose bodies fed~The ravening eagle, wolf,
16    14|   bones, where rich repast~Had fed the ravening hound and vulture
17    15|        hay or heartening corn,~Fed on pure air, and Rabican
18    16|     limbs the ravening fire so fed,~Was never sight more sad! --
19    17|        on flesh of woman never fed.~ ~ XLI~" `Of this you may
20    18|      paynim's soul so fiercely fed,~He could not find a resting
21    18|       rill, by limpid fountain fed,~Waters, all round about,
22    19|      unceasing hope of comfort fed~Master and mariners opprest
23    19|     thousand coursers which he fed,~Him, as the best, and biggest,
24    20|        And her who should have fed the earth-bred worm~Preserved
25    21|      by the ceaseless grief he fed,~He sickened and betook
26    22| sea-foam lay;~Which would have fed upon the naked maid,~So
27    23|      hangman Love his hate had fed.~Orlando studied to conceal
28    28|    that lady neither slept nor fed:~So that for pity oft the
29    33|  pictures they their sight had fed,~And talked long while --
30    34|      erring Italy so full have fed!~Whom, for the scourge of
31    36|      her paps the milky mother fed.~ ~ LXIII~"Needing to quit
32    37|    foams in haughty tide,~When fed with mighty rain or melted
33    40|     wild-fire, scattered wide,~Fed upon ship and shallop ill
34    40|   fires that on the royal city fed.~When nearer now the king
35    42|      horses through the forest fed;~And from their brows the
36    43|   partridge since on fruits he fed,~Even do for love, what
