"True Loues are often sown, but seldom grow on ground."

   O happy Queene of Faeries, that hast found
   Mongst many, one that with his prowesse may
   Defend thine honour, and thy foes confound:
True Loues are often sown, but seldom grow on ground.

     Lady Una to Prince Arthur, in Edmund Spenser's The faerie queene I.ix.16.
