As though he joyed in his plenteous store,
Laden with fruits that made him laugh, full glad
That he had banished hunger, which before
Had by the belly oft him pinched sore;
Upon his head a wreath, that was enrolled
With ears of corn of every sort, he bore,
And in his hand a sickle he did hold,
To reap the ripened fruits the which the earth had yold.

• Edmund Spenser, The Faerie Queene, Book VII (1609), Cantos VII, stanza 30
