Strona 163 - Cuddie, the prayse is better, then the price, The glory eke much greater then the gayne : 20 O what an honor is it, to restraine The lust of lawlesse youth with good advice : Or pricke them forth with pleasaunce of thy vaine, Whereto thou list their trayned willes entice. Soone as thou gynst to sette thy notes in frame...
Strona clxiii - There is something in Spenser that pleases one as strongly in old age as it did in one's youth. I read the Faerie Queene, when I was about twelve, with infinite delight; and I think it gave me as much, when I read it over about a year or two ago."— Spence's Anecdotes.

Strona lxxiii - The nobility of the Spencers has been illustrated and enriched by the trophies of Marlborough ; but I exhort them to consider the Fairy Queen* as the most precious jewel of their coronet.
Strona vi - I ever fancied mofte, and in a 4 5 o maner admired onelye in Lucian, Petrarche, Aretine, Pafquill, and all the moft delicate and fine conceited Grecians and Italians...
Strona cxix - He sung th' heroic knights of Faiery-land In lines so elegant, of such command, That had the Thracian played but half so well, He had not left Eurydice in Hell. But ere he ended his melodious song An host of angels flew the clouds among, And rapt this swan from his attentive mates, To make him one of their associates In...
