Not illustrated. 1799 edition. Excerpt: ...weav'd; And two, fair spurs, resplendent to behold, Gold were; the buckles, and the rowels gold, 715 Believ'd the champion's once, whose valiant deed The holy virgin from the dragon freed: With Ver. 716. Believ'd the champion 1 once, "whose valiant deed The holy virgin from the dragon freed: J St. George, the tribune of Cappaddcia, according to the legendary fable, travelling through Lybia, delivered a virgin, a king's daughter, who was on the point of being devoured by a dragon: but Ariosto seems rather to allude to the mystic sense" of the story, by which the virgin is made the type of Faith or Religion, and the dragon her ancient enemy (the old serpent) subdued by holy Fortitude. TasTo has a passage, where he describes the mother of Clorinda paying her secret devotions to a picture of this kind, which seems to give the whole an allegorical turn. Her pictur'd room a sacred story shows, Where rich with life each mimic figure glows: There white as snow appears a lovely maid, _ And, near, a dragon's hideous form display'd: A champion With many a prize as rare were these obtain'd By Sansonetto, when he Zaffa gain'd. Their sins absolv'd, amidst a faintly band 720 Of fathers held in reverence through the land For pious works, they visit every shrine T(c) meditate on mysteries divine: These shrines, which now the sacrilegious Moor Has wrested from the Christian's waining power. 725 O foul disgrace! To arms is Europe fir'd, But wars not where her arms are most requir'd. While these with rites of pure devotion pour'd Their fouls in prayer, and Heaven's high grace rmplor'd, A Grecian pilgrim came, who tidings brought 730 That deep distress in Gryphon's bosom wrought, Absorb'd each calmer thought in black despair, And scatter'd all his pious vows in.
