FOOTNOTES:
[A] Compare Pope's Temple of Fame (ll. 513, 514)—
Nor Fame I slight, nor for her favours call;
She comes unlook'd for, if she comes at all.
And Carew's Epistle to the Countess of Anglesie (ll. 57, 58)—
He chose not in the active stream to swim,
Nor hunted Honour, which yet hunted him.Ed.
[B] In the edition of 1807, the following note was added to these lines:—
For Knightes ever should be persevering,
To seeke honour without feintise or slouth,
Fro wele to better in all manner thinge.
Chaucer—The Floure and the Leafe.—Ed.
