Canto

 1     1|        And he to her a lover's service paid,~Now well remembered
 2     2|  confiding,~Renewed his wonted service to his lord.~Behold Rinaldo
 3     5|     meant~Of thee, if faithful service might avail;~But while he
 4     6|    deed, till thou requite~The service done with praise and grateful
 5     8|     Nor any squire attendant's service willed.~ ~ LXXXV~And to
 6     9|        Mid many in my father's service, I~Select two brothers fitted
 7     9|        And grateful thanks the service done repaid.~Thence they,
 8    10|       way;~Or ingrate for such service -- cruel proved~For such
 9    10|         As those who pay their service faithfully;~But vaunt no
10    11|     the pay~You render for the service done?" (said he)~"Why rather
11    15|       on all such as have good service done,~Than in new kingdom
12    16|      The king of Fez upon this service prest;~For all delay might
13    19|       Remunerates ye both, for service true!~Sirs, show me but
14    20|       martial band,~Phalantus' service by their goodly pay~Purchased (
15    20|         alas! to fly~So vile a service, I desire to die."~ ~ LXV~
16    21|  scanned;~And promised him his service to repay~With a reward exceeding
17    25|       here, a remedy,~I in thy service would have lived and died,~
18    27|     Two serjeants only for his service takes,~And with that pair
19    27|       we the pippin, pear, and service can~Engraft by art on one
20    30|    haste; with pain~The wonted service of his squires he tarries:~
21    31| absence is but joy's increase.~Service may be endured, though nought
22    31|     does not cease.~For worthy service in the end is paid,~Albeit
23    31|        none that ever from his service buys~Deserter by the bribe
24    34|     sovereign beauties for the service done.~ ~ XXII~"I ill to
25    34|  deserve my charms~By love and service, not by force of arms.~ ~
26    35|    alone,~Should weary in your service; since whilere~You would
27    35|     steeds that were~Ready for service, kept in lordly stall,~For
28    42|        their love apart --~The service of each former loving wight.~
29    43|    charms secure)~Against long service, I behold, more staid,~More
30    43|    tires;~Nor she, for mass or service said, her woe~Can ease,
31    45|         In willing and eternal service, tried;~And wills thy good
32    45|        it may,~Albeit to Leo's service all applied,~Dies he a thousand
