List of the Wood Cuts

inglés

Then did Sir Knight abandon dwelling,

And out he rode a colonelling.—

A Squire he had, whose name was Ralph,

That in th' adventure went his half.1. 13, 14, 457–8.

Thus was he gifted and accouter'd,—

His tawny beard was th' equal grace

Both of his wisdom and his face;

In cut and dye so like a tile,

A sudden view it would beguile. 1. 237—244.

When Gospel-Trumpeter, surrounded

With long-ear' d rout, to battle sounded,

And pulpit, drum ecclesiastick,

Was beat with fist, instead of a stick. 1. 9 — 12.

.mw-parser-output .wst-bar{text-decoration:line-through}.mw-parser-output .wst-bar-inner{color:transparent}—————he always chose

To carry vittle in his hose.

That often tempted rats and mice

The ammunition to surprise. 1. 318 — 321.

And wing'd with speed and fury, flew

To rescue Knight from black and blue.

Which ere he could achieve, his sconce

The leg encounter' d twice and once ;

And now 'twas rais'd, to smite agen,

When Ralpho thrust himself between. 1. 941—946

Crowdero making doleful face,

Like hermit poor in pensive place,

To dungeon they the wretch commit,

And the survivor of his feet. 1. 1167—1170.

When setting ope the postern gate,

To take the field and sally at,

The foe appear'd, drawn up and drill'd,

Ready to charge them in the field. 1. 443—446.

———in a cool shade.

Which eglantine and roses made;

Close by a softly murm'ring stream.

Where lovers us'd to loll and dream:

There leaving him to his repose. 1. 159—163.

———she went

To find the Knight in limbo pent.

And 'twas not long before she found

Him, and his stout Squire, in the pound. 1. 99—102.

a tall long-sided dame,—

But wond'rous light—yeleped Fame,—

Upon her shoulders wings she wears

Like hanging sleeves, lin'd thro' with ears. 1. 45—50.

With that he seiz'd upon his blade;

And Ralpho too, as quick and bold,

Upon his basket-hilt laid hold. 1. 560—562.

——quitting both their swords and reins.

They grasp'd with all their strength the manes;

And, to avoid the foe's pursuit,

With spurring put their cattle to't. 1. 839—842.

————Hudibras, to all appearing,

Believ'd him to be dead as herring.

He held it now no longer safe

To tarry the return of Ralph,

But rather leave him in the lurch. 1. 1147—1151

This Sidrophel by chance espy'd,

And with amazement staring wide:

Bless us, quoth he, what dreadful wonder

Is that appears in heaven yonder? 1. 423—426.

Sidrophel perusing Hudibras' Epistle.

Gimcracks, whims, and jiggumbobs.

He wonder'd how she came to know

What he had done, and meant to do;

Held up his affidavit hand,

As if he 'ad been to be arraign'd. 1. 483—486.

H' attack' d the window, storm'd the glass,

And in a moment gain'd the pass;

Thro' which he dragg'd the worsted soldier's

Four-quarters out by th' head and shoulders. 1. 1577—1580.

Knights, citizens, and burgesses—

Held forth by rumps—of pigs and geese.—

Each bonfire is a funeral pile,

In which they roast, and scorch, and broil. 1. 1515—1520.

———crowded on with so much haste.

Until they'd block'd the passage fast,

And barricade'd it with haunches

Of outward men, and bulks and paunches. 1. 1669—1672.

To this brave man the Knight repairs

For counsel in his law-affairs,—

To whom the Knight, with comely grace.

Put off his hat to put his case. 1. 621—628.

With books and money plac'd for show,

Like nest-eggs to make clients lay. 1. 624, 625.

———having pump'd up all his wit,

And humm'd upon it, thus he writ. 1. 787, 788.

What tender sigh, and trickling tear.

Longs for a thousand pounds a year;

And languishing transports are fond

Of statute, mortgage, bill, and bond. 1. 85—88.

She open'd it, and read it out,

With many a smile and leering flout. 1. 357, 358.

We make the man of war strike sail.

And to our braver conduct veil,

And, when he's chas'd his enemies,

Submit to us upon his knees. 1. 311—314.

The dogs beat you at Brentford Fair;

Where sturdy butchers broke your noddle, Part II c. iii.

And handled you like a fop-doodle. 1. 996—998.

————the foe beat up his quarters,

And storm'd the outworks of his fortress;—

Soon as they had him at their mercy. Part III. c. i.

They put him to the cudgel fiercely. 1. 1135-36. 1147-48.
