Deprived of its ordinary power.
2 Bountyhed, goodness.
3 Rote, lyre. {Celtic, chrotta ; English, craiod. ) 78 THE FAERIE QUEENE.
5 The land which warlike Britons now possesse, And therein have their mighty empire raysd, In antique times w^as salvage wildernesse, Unpeopled, unmannurd, unprovd, ^ unpraysd; Ne was it island then, ne was it paysd^ Amid the ocean waves, ne was it sought Of merchaunts farre for profits therein praysd ; But was all desolate, and of some thought By sea to have bene fro...m the Celticke mayn-land brought.
6 Ne did it then deserve a name to have, Till that the venturous mariner that w^ay, Learning his ship from those white rocks to save, Whicii all along the southerne sea-coast lay, Threatning unheedy wrecke and rash decay. For safety that same his sea-marke made, And namd it Albion : but later day, Finding in it fit ports for fishers trade, Gan more the same frequent, and further to invade.
■7 But far in land a salvage nation dwelt Of hideous giaunts, and halfe-beastly men, That never tasted grace, nor goodnes felt ; But wild like beastes lurking in loathsome den, And flying fast as roebucke through the fen, All naked without shame or care of cold, By hunting and by spoiling liveden ^ ; Of stature huge, and eke of corage bold, That sonnes of men amazd their sternesse to behold.
