ARGUMENT.
The old Atlantes suffers fatal wreck,
Foiled by the ring, and young Rogero freed,
Who soars in air till he appears a speck,
Mounted upon tlhe wizard’s winged steed.
Obedient to the royal Charles’s beck,
He who had followed Love’s imperious lead,
Rinaldo, disembarks on British land,
And saves Geneura, doomed to stake and brand.
