Spenserian Stanza: Written At The Close Of Canto II, Book V, Of "The Faerie Queene"

by


    In after-time, a sage of mickle lore
    Yclep'd Typographus, the Giant took,
    And did refit his limbs as heretofore,
    And made him read in many a learned book,
    And into many a lively legend look;
    Thereby in goodly themes so training him,
    That all his brutishness he quite forsook,
    When, meeting Artegall and Talus grim,
    The one he struck stone-blind, the other's eyes wox dim.
