Additional quotes by Edmund Spenser

Vaine is the vaunt, and victory unjust, that more to mighty hands, then rightfull cause doth trust.

No daintie flowre or herbe that growes on grownd, No arborett with painted blossoms drest And smelling sweete, but there it might be fownd To bud out faire, and throwe her sweete smels al arownd.

There is nothing lost, but may be found, if sought.

(No hay nada perdido, que no pueda encontrarse, si se lo busca)

The gentle minde by gentle deeds is knowne. For a man by nothing is so well bewrayd, As by his manners. - Edmund Spenser
