05Parp4    75:5|in obedience and I will be the intermediary, since (because of

05Parp4    75:13|men, and the third will be the one I fight with

05Parp4    75:18|whose princes are vile, cannot be progressive and renowned
05Parp4    75:25|die with this sin and be eternally lost. Taking charge of

05Parp4    76:18|that the venerable man’s head be severed. This occurred close to

05Parp4    83:7|that each of us will be able to chase away [1000] of
05Parp4    83:20|repent, reconvert, do pennance, and be saved
05Parp4    83:24|men with him, they would be unable to escape without injury
05Parp4    84:4|relatives; and we survivors will be unable to save our own
05Parp4    85:6|heard and the matter cannot be ended without this. This is
05Parp4    85:13|how are you going to be able to vanquish me?’

05Parp4    86:4|whom I previously knew to be brave, but whom I now

05Parp4    87:6|lands subject to this kingdom be made to flourish. (We want

05Parp4    95:6|another’s tyranny and damage would be very heavy, and our laws
05Parp4    95:8|you did. Perhaps they would be alive today and, like you
05Parp4    95:12|nor we were able to be stopped by the needs or
