bale quotes

  • What worlds delight, or joy of living speech Can heart, so plunged in sea of sorrows deep, And heape'  d with so huge misfortunes, reach? The careful cold beginneth for to creep, And in my heart his iron arrow steep, Soon as I think upon my bitter bale.

    - Edmund Spenser
      The Faerie Queen, bk.1, canto 7, stanza 39.
