Edmund Spenser's epic description of the virtues of man. Each book in the poem tells the story of an Arthurian knight, while allegorically examining a specific virtue. Though Spenser originally planned 24 books, only 6 were completed. Despite that, is one of the longest poems in the English language.

The Faerie Queene was immensely popular when first published, and Elizabeth I granted Spenser a life pension to recognize its literary importance.
