Additional quotes by Edmund Spenser

They cannot finde that path, which first was showne,
But wander too and fro in waies vnknowne . . .

He oft finds med'cine, who his griefe imparts;
But double griefs afflict concealing harts,
As raging flames who striveth to supresse.

For all that Nature by her mother-wit Could frame in earth.
