 1     5|    passed, and stood apart.~ ~ XCII~Him the good king entreated
 2     9|     the cruel island blows.~ ~ XCII~Such was the paladin's desire
 3    10|  Ireland shaped his course;~ ~ XCII~And saw fabulous Hibernia,
 4    12|        oppressed with woe.~ ~  XCII~An aged dame was with her,
 5    14|        Silence he may find.~ ~ XCII~In blest Arabia lies a pleasant
 6    15|       in their native land.~ ~ XCII~Gryphon and Aquilant thus
 7    17|       i' the midst of fire.~ ~ XCII~With burning heart, and
 8    18|      hands, was justly due.~ ~ XCII~'Tis Aquilant's, 'tis Norandino'
 9    19|   daylight fail not thee."~ ~  XCII~So said he, and obedient
10    20|  evermore a timid creature.~ ~ XCII~But of Marphisa what will
11    22|      shield, no more abide.~ ~ XCII~"Thee will I keep no more,
12    23|  palfrey, reined or loose."~ ~ XCII~The paynim deems it were
13    24|      to prudence or to age.~ ~ XCII~He thought to bear her to
14    25|       in all things, rest."~ ~ XCII~Rogero is such words his
15    26|       yoke had nearly laid.~ ~ XCII~Arrived, Rogero knew Frontino
16    26|       instance, he refused.~ ~ XCII~The first day this and last,
17    27|      who gainsays me, lies.~ ~ XCII~"But because haply some
18    28|      of Afric and of Spain.~ ~ XCII~To pass to Afric straight,
19    30| Agrismont his way had bent.~ ~ XCII~There, hearing of the safety
20    31|        Mount Alban's pride.~ ~ XCII~Hence had that king repaired
21    32|        relieved his sorrow.~ ~ XCII~"Because, he said, and made
22    33|   fount returned once more;~ ~ XCII~In case, as erst concerted
23    34|     way retracing evermore.~ ~ XCII~That elder is so nimble
24    37|   might on the hag assuage.~ ~ XCII~As the flood, swoln with
25    41|   haughty Mandricardo lost.~ ~ XCII~Great vantage has he, on
26    42|       unhappy at her death;~ ~ XCII~"Yea, Italy; that with her
27    43|        are house and land.'~ ~ XCII~"Unless she heard he thither
28    44|       good a warrior slain.~ ~ XCII~As baby, albeit its fond
29    45|      deed that he would do.~ ~ XCII~He entered into that dark
30    46|   faulchion cleft in twain.~ ~ XCII~He is descried, amid a fair
