 Dingle, or bushy dell of this wild wood, / And every bosky bourn from side to side.

 Earth felt the wound, and Nature from her seat / Sighing through all her works gave signs of woe, / That all was lost.

 Embryos and idiots, eremites and friars / White, black, and grey, with all their trumpery.

 Endued / With sanctity of reason.

 Everyone knows that you cannot talk about people by name,

 Evil news rides post, while good news bates

 Execute their aery purposes.

 Eyeless in Gaza at the mill with slaves.

 Fairy damsels met in forest wide / By knights of Logres, or of Lyones, / Lancelot or Pelleas, or Pellenore.

 Fairy elves, / Whose midnight revels, by a forest side / Or fountain, some belated peasant sees, / Or dreams he sees, while overhead the moon / Sits arbitress.

 Fame is no plant that grows on mortal soil.

 Fame is the spur that the clear spirit doth raise (That last infirmity of noble mind) To scorn delights, and live laborious days

 Far from all resort of mirth, / Save the cricket on the hearth!

 Farewell happy fields / Where joy for ever dwells: Hail horrors, hail!

 Fear and dull disposition, luke warmness and sloth, are not seldom wont to cloak themselves under the affected name of Moderation.
