Analysis of The Poetry Of Spenser
George Meredith 1828 (Portsmouth, Hampshire) – 1909 (Box Hill, Surrey)
Lakes where the sunsheen is mystic with splendour and softness;
Vales where sweet life is all Summer with golden romance:
Forests that glimmer with twilight round revel-bright palaces;
Here in our May-blood we wander, careering 'mongst ladies and
knights.
