Strana 39 - In that Faery Queene I meane glory in my generall intention, but in my particular I conceive the most excellent and glorious person of our soveraine the Queene, and her kingdome in Faery land.
Strana 69 - Fortune's brow hath frown'd, Even to the utmost wrinkle it can bend : Her venom's spit. Alas ! what country rests, What son, what comfort that she can deprive ? Triumphs not Venice in my overthrow ? Gapes not my native country for my blood ? Lies not my son tomb'd in the swelling main ? And...

Strana 118 - What * shape ! why any quick-done fiction, As some brave spirits of the Genoan dukes, To come out of Elysium forsooth, Led in by Mercury, to gratulate Our happy fortune ; some such anything, Some far-fet trick good for ladies, some stale toy Or other, no matter, so 't be of our devising.
Strana 119 - Such is the state of all humanity. Why, look you, I may be the son of some Duke; for, believe me, intemperate lascivious bastardy makes nobility doubtful — I have a lusty daring heart, Mendoza.
Strana 178 - To the generall Reader. K^OW, that I have not labored in this poeme, to tie my selfe to relate any thing as an historian but to inlarge every thing as a Poet. To transcribe Authors, quote authorities, & translate Latin prose orations into English blank-verse, hath in this subject, beene the least aime of my studies.
