Canto

 1     2|        seems, so passing Nature's law.~ ~ LV~"Well covered in
 2     4|         damsel's due,~Such is our law, unless some champion fight~
 3     4|         LIX~"Our impious Scottish law, severe and dread,~Wills,
 4     4|        fond desire?~Cursed be the law by which the dame is tried!~
 5     4|          LXVII~"By this injurious law, unequal still,~On woman
 6     5|         do not think our Scottish law to you~Is yet unknown, which
 7     8|       torment heard,~And, against law and usage, to molest~The
 8     9|        people rude~(Such is their law), in search of plunder hies;~
 9    13|          what different creed~And law forbade us, he esteemed
10    14|      rebel;~So that false Babel's law will have its way,~And thus
11    14|       bold followers of Mahound's law.~With Isolier, Grandonio,
12    19|           Which, by their ancient law, enslave or slew~All those
13    19|     disdain:~Better he deemed the law were disobeyed,~Than that
14    20|           whom given~Was the fell law, the ruler of the land;~
15    20| perpetuate their empery,~The idle law would soon be held in scorn,~
16    20|       mercy, all the clemency~The law accords for theirs, not
17    20| successors were,~Should guard the law which willed, whatever wight,~
18    22|         task by one~Whose will is law; therefore is honour due~
19    22|       three days past, a shameful law devise;~Than whom more worthless
20    22|           is made.~'Tis yours the law's observance to compel,~
21    22|       good champions of that evil law,~Made by the castle's lord
22    24|           embassadors are safe by law:~ ~ CX~But to fair Doralice
23    29|      Cursed, and forbidden by his law, esteemed)~The liquor, tasted
24    29|         seat;~And I to register a law intend,~'Mid those which
25    31|   detained,~To enforce the wicked law he had ordained.~ ~ XXX~
26    32|       that maid,~But that an evil law she disobeyed.~ ~ ~ I~I
27    32|       hill or dale.~In fine, that law was fixt, which to this
28    37|          made the peer:~Of fouler law we neither read nor hear.~ ~
29    37|      Marganor had made,~And a new law, imposed by her, obeyed.~ ~
30    37|            Whoever to oppose this law shall dare.~-- In fine,
31    37|         graved that mad and cruel law; the pair,~In imitation,
32    37|        upon the pillar trace~That law they had enacted for the
33    37|          up their rest,~Until the law is graved, of different
34    38|           holy man,~-- Him of our law -- Christ's perfect life
35    43|          all must take~By certain law, the form of spotted snake.~ ~
