Note 98 — THE TEMPLE OF FAME.
Reading edition
I heard about her throne y-sung That all the palays walles rung; So sung the mighty Muse, she That cleped is Calliope, And her eighte sisters eke.—Pope.
Pope should have continued the extract; for his next four lines were prompted by the succeeding four in Chaucer:
And evermore eternally They sing of Fame as tho heard I; "Heried be thou and thy name Goddess of renown or fame."
"Heried" means praised.
