Canto

 1     1|      dark the damsel fled,~By rude unharboured heath and savage
 2     2|  Where caverned mountains and rude cliffs appear;~Where in
 3     6|       sing so sweet,~That the rude sea grows civil at her song,~
 4     6|     form, to barren plant and rude:~And for her love, for whom
 5     7|   heart of any churl,~However rude, hence courteous accents
 6     9|     is its name; whose people rude~(Such is their law), in
 7    11|     mountain was that harbour rude;~Spacious, and for her need
 8    12|      he keeps buried, in this rude repair,~A face so gentle
 9    13|        ill fashioned food and rude,~Which held the thief and
10    14|    CXXXIV~A horrid concert, a rude harmony~Of deep lament,
11    15|       angry winds aye vex the rude domain:~So ill, at seasons,
12    18|      the castle good,~When by rude Boreas' rage or Eurus' strown,~
13    19|    that inhospitable race and rude.~ ~ XL~She, not possessing
14    23|   here its summit rears,~Amid rude hills, confining on Poictiers.~ ~
15    23|        if she met with one so rude or mad,~Who to deprive her
16    23|      him 'mid those mountains rude,~And with the impious woman
17    24|       the vale below,~To make rude war upon the madman go,~ ~
18    28|       evil taste, that paynim rude~No sooner tasted, than he
19    29|   says he burst upon a rock's rude bed,~And lay one shapeless
20    29|     with wear and tear~Of the rude rocks, and suffering sore,
21    30|   with her to find the paynim rude;~And weened to have chastized
22    32|    kind,~And not transform to rude a gentle breast.~When Tristram
23    33|        To which those rustics rude shall make pretence.~ ~
24    33|     that emprize --~Makes the rude Switzer pay Bicocca dear,~
25    33|      polluted by their rapine rude.~ ~ CXXIII~That king had
26    37|       found,~As could by such rude quarters be supplied.~Arriving
27    40|  Rogero and the Dane exchange rude blows.~ ~ ~ I~The diverse
28    41|       bark from wreck on that rude rock and bare,~All to their
29    42| lordly castle wide,~Where the rude place was roughest and most
30    42|     nurse, that one of wit so rude~Should dare to sing her
31    43|       the first stone of this rude villagery;~And (as thou
32    43|       Bacchante at the horn's rude sound,~Erewhile was seen
33    43|     that shallop made~For the rude isle; thence sought the
34    46|      at Rogero rode, who that rude shock~Shunned warily, retiring
