CHAPTER VI SECOND PART OF THE FAERY QUEEN. — SPENSER'S LAST YEARS (1590—1599) The publication of the Faery Queen in 1590 had made the new poet of the Shepherd's Calendar a famous man. He was no longer merely the favourite of a knot of enthusiastic friends, and outside of them only recog- nised and valued at his true measure by such judges as Sidney and Ralegh. By the common voice of all the poets of his time he was now acknowledged as the first of living English poets. It is not easy for us, wh...o live in these late times and are familiar with so many literary masterpieces, to realise the surprise of a first and novel achievement in literature ; the effect on an age, long and eagerly seeking after poetical expression, of the appearance at last of a work of such power, richness, and finished art. It can scarcely be doubted, I think, from the bitter sarcasms interspersed in his later poems, that Spenser expected more from his triumph than it brought him. VUAV. VI SECOND TART OF THE FAERY QUEEN 217 It opened no way of advancement for liim in England He continued for a while in that most ungrateful and unsatisfactory employment, the service of the State in Ireland; and that he relinquished in 1593.^ At the end of 1591 he was again at Kilcolman.
