Canto

 1     5|       love, my fortune envying,~Willed I should be his follower
 2     5|     called him to his side, and willed him take~His arms; and to
 3     5|    knight.~ ~"And evil Fate has willed her brother dear,~Zerbino,
 4     6|          and bewray,~So God has willed, deeds hidden from the day.~ ~
 5     6|         she bore,~What fish she willed, at pleasure drew to shore.~ ~
 6     7|     Alas! why seal the womb God willed should be~Pregnant by thee
 7     7|        his health restored, now willed the youth,~Through her should
 8     8|      squire attendant's service willed.~ ~ LXXXV~And to pass every
 9     9|     puts to sea,~And (so chance willed) burns, sinks, or routs
10     9|         his hand;~ ~ LXIII~`And willed the king should on his side
11    10|         should be impaired,~And willed as well those beauteous
12    15|    content;~But so their leader willed, of little wit:~Extinguished
13    20|       had so sore offended.~She willed each bark and crew which
14    20|      Should guard the law which willed, whatever wight,~Conducted
15    20|       crone invest;~ ~ CXVI~And willed that she should don the
16    22|         what liked him best.~He willed the whole emprize his own
17    23|       examined every place;~Who willed not aught, that in her sight
18    24|          And, wending where she willed, the Scottish lord~Left
19    27|        has not bounteous Nature willed that man~Should be produced
20    28|       such injury proclaim:~But willed that like himself he should
21    30|      she that epistle read,~And willed moreover that as many more~
22    32|         freed,~Heaven's justice willed, now lay with wound unhealed,~
23    34|       twas charity, by sick men willed~For distribution, after
24    36|       case was I,~So Heaven had willed, and such your destiny!~ ~
25    39|       provident and wise;~Which willed the fleet, from leaves of
26    40|       the gentle youth was ever willed~To offend his lady-love
27    43|    cloth of gold o'erspread.~So willed Orlando; till he could be
28    43|        she to serve her God was willed,~A monastery would the warrior
29    44| attendant squires the best,~And willed none else should him accompany;~
30    45|     Heaven, which eternally had willed the maid~Should be Rogero'
31    46|       was his son to whom -- so willed~His wicked consort -- that
