Excerpt from The Canterbury Tales, And, Faerie Queene: With Other Poems of Chaucer and Spenser; Edited for Popular Perusal, With Current Illustrative and Explanatory Notes Subject be unto all poesy, And kiss the steps, where as thou seest space, Of Virgil, Ovid, Homer, Lucan, Stace. See note 13, page 93. 3 See note 16, page 282.that the poet had chosen in that way to convey his matter - told, or taught, so much more directly and simply by word of mouth. It is impossible to pronounce positively on the subject the question whether Chaucer saw Petrarch in 1373 must remain a moot-point, so long as we have only our present information but fancy loves to dwell on the thought of the two poets conversing under the vines at Arqua and we find in the history and the writings of Chaucer nothing to contradict, a good deal to countenance, the belief that such a meeting occurred.

Not illustrated. 1870 edition. Excerpt: ...for is not every part of a matchless statue instinct with the loveliness and majesty of the whole 1 Such was the fame which the publication of his magnum opus won for Spenser, that his printer made haste to collect what works of the poet were accessible in the hands of his friends, or otherwise " loosely scattered abroad;" and in 1591, when Spenser, having been endowed with his pension, was back at Kileolinan, Ponsonby put forth a volume of " Complaints; containing sundry small Poems of the World's Vanity."
