Edmund Spenser - Poem 22Edmund Spenser - Poem 22
Work rating: Low


ANd thou great Iuno, which with awful might the lawes of wedlock still dost patronize, And the religion of the faith first plight With sacred rites hast taught to solemnize: and eeke for comfort often called art Of women in their smart, Eternally bind thou this louely band, And all thy blessings vnto vs impart. And thou glad Genius, in whose gentle hand, The bridale bowre and geniall bed remaine, Without blemish or staine. And the sweet pleasures of theyr loues delight With secret ayde doest succour and supply, Till they bring forth the fruitfull progeny, Send vs the timely fruit of this same night. And thou fayre Hebe, and thou Hymen free, Grant that it may so be. Til which we cease your further prayse to sing, Ne any woods shal answer, nor your Eccho ring.
