Canto

 1     2|              XXXI~I speak of that famed damsel, by whose spear~O'
 2     3|          and bless.~ ~ XXIX~"More famed for courtesy than warlike
 3     3|  illustrious name;~Obyson, Albert famed for pious deed,~Aldobrandino,
 4     8|    Paris-walls the leaguer lay~Of famed Troyano's son's besieging
 5    13|        LIX~"To hear of one of thy famed race prepare,~Whom liberal
 6    15|            And that fair field is famed eternally,~And he who wins
 7    15|          bred;~No sovereign is so famed in history,~Of all whose
 8    15|    squadron was conveyed~Nigh the famed gulf from ancient Magi hight;~
 9    15|           For sovereign goodness, famed the country through,~And
10    16| steadfastly pursue the lore,~Who, famed not for one single perfidy,~
11    16|      subject's vows oblige;~And a famed emperor, of more majesty~
12    18|           the third day he Tyre's famed city sees,~And lesser Joppa
13    18|           Marphisa hold is there,~Famed, through the world, for
14    20|          Alexandria, heir~To this famed city, which from her was
15    26|          but himself should wield~Famed Hector's argent eagle on
16    31|           his host to be~Rinaldo, famed above each famous knight,~
17    33|          note,~Zeuxis and others, famed heretofore,~Whose memory
18    33|          credit of those spirits, famed whilere;~ ~  III~The painters
19    33|          strong,~Less was Ulysses famed for daring feat;~Nestor,
20    35|        cities of renown;~Not only famed for wall and palace rare,~
21    35|         not so bold,~Was, as 'tis famed; and mid the nameless swarm,~
22    35|         hied,~To prove how justly famed his might and main.~No other
23    36|      imperial city: more than one~Famed king and emperor, who that
24    37|    Sidonian band obeyed;~Not only famed Zenobia, only she~Who Persian,
25    37|        baring that good sword, so famed in fight,~So smote him with
26    38|      mighty riches, or for valour famed.~ ~ XI~Her kindly Charlemagne
27    39|      Against a Gaul, so stout and famed in fight,~Your champion
28    40|         that good Danish warrior, famed for might.~That best of
29    42|       because Rome's gold in that famed seat~Was weighed, whereof
30    42|          such a font~Of poetry in famed Ancona run,~As that winged
31    43|      beauty have eschewed~Of that famed daughter which fair Leda
32    43|         haply mayst have heard it famed)~Mantua from me the rising
33    43|      haughty mood,~Have forced so famed a paladin for more~Than
34    46| Volterrane.~Blosio, Pierio, Vida, famed for flow~Of lofty eloquence
