Or wilt thou go ask the Mole:

Can Wisdom be put in a silver rod?

Or Love in a golden bowl?

Edmund Spenser·1552–1599
nd on his brest a bloudie Crosse he bore, 10The deare remembrance of his dying Lord,For whose sweete sake that glorious badge he wore,And dead as living ever him ador'd:Upon his shield the like was also scor'd,For soveraine hope,[*] which in his helpe he had: 15Right faithfull true he was in deede and word,But of his cheere did seeme too solemne sad;Yet nothing did he dread, but ever was ydrad.
