Canto

 1     4|      lowly guise.~Besides, the eternal trophy you shall rear,~You
 2     7|         Formed in the ideas of Eternal Mind,~Destined, from age
 3     9|     lay,~Was sent alike to his eternal rest:~Who going and returning,
 4     9|       in solid chain~Love with eternal knot had linked the fair,~
 5    10|          LVII~Return we, where eternal fame is due,~Leaving Alcina
 6    10| permanent,~Still permanent the eternal blossoms are;~Not that kind
 7    13|        all. Upon the strand~To Eternal Love, To Goodness Infinite,~
 8    13|       the secrets knows~Of the eternal gods who rule our sphere,~
 9    14|        pitying cheer,~On their eternal, loving Lord, and, stirred~
10    14|   LXXXII~Even her, to whom the eternal Sire as well,~Having found
11    15|        went;~Which now, to our eternal infamy,~Foul Moor usurp;
12    16|     every nation, you may gain~Eternal glory, bought with little
13    17|       my will restrain,~By the eternal gods, I truly swear,~He
14    20|   foully rage,~Be tied to your eternal infamy,~And women's praises
15    20|    reign,~Which they had hoped eternal should remain.~ ~ XXX~"So
16    20|        blew,~The knight to his eternal rest is gone.~Would I with
17    23|        straight blasphemed the eternal Hierarchy,~That horse, so
18    27|      such wise,~Deserving well eternal praise to gain,~Vouching
19    27|     And born to be the world's eternal curse!"~ ~ CXXII~These plaints
20    30|     reckoned a misdeed,~And an eternal blot to smite a steed.~ ~
21    31|      by either made,~Will with eternal mischief be appaid.~ ~ XXII~
22    34|       Weeping and wailing, and eternal yell;~Proof certain that
23    34|    mine eyes o'erflow.~Thus in eternal torment shall I dwell;~For
24    34|      And reached the region of eternal fire;~Whose heat the saint
25    34|      this, of ignorant men the eternal leisure,~And vain designs,
26    35|       Shall be its certain and eternal dower.~ ~ VI~"Between the
27    35|   addrest,~As that whereof THE ETERNAL had design~To fashion good
28    37|        merit~Their glory, that eternal fame inherit:~ ~ VI~Faithful,
29    38|    peer,~Our baffled Saracens' eternal fear;~ ~ LV~"And the other
30    42|     That warrior's mace a fire eternal fills,~Whose lasting fuel
31    43|       And in the name of those eternal Three,~The Father, and the
32    44| Astolpho paid,~And said, he an eternal debt should owe;~In that
33    45|        to thee,~In willing and eternal service, tried;~And wills
