Epithalamion is an ode written by Edmund Spenser to his bride, Elizabeth Boyle, on their wedding day in 1594. It was first published in 1595 in London by William Ponsonby as part of a volume entitled Amoretti and Epithalamion. Written not long since by Edmunde Spenser. The volume included the sequence of 89 sonnets (Amoretti), along with a series of short poems called Anacreontics and the Epithalamion, a public poetic celebration of marriage. Only six complete copies of this first edition remain today, including one at the Folger Shakespeare Library and one at the Bodleian Library.

| - Epithalamion is an ode written by Edmund Spenser to his bride, Elizabeth Boyle, on their wedding day in 1594. It was first published in 1595 in London by William Ponsonby as part of a volume entitled Amoretti and Epithalamion. Written not long since by Edmunde Spenser. The volume included the sequence of 89 sonnets (Amoretti), along with a series of short poems called Anacreontics and the Epithalamion, a public poetic celebration of marriage. Only six complete copies of this first edition remain today, including one at the Folger Shakespeare Library and one at the Bodleian Library. The ode begins with an invocation to the Muses to help the groom, and moves through the couple's wedding day, from Spenser's impatient hours before dawn while waiting for his bride to wake up, to the late hours of night after Spenser and Boyle have consummated their marriage (wherein Spenser's thoughts drift towards the wish for his bride to have a fertile womb so that they may have many children). Spenser meticulously records the hours of the day from before dawn to late into the wedding night: its 24 stanzas represent the hours of Midsummer Day. The ode's content progresses from the enthusiasm of youth to the concerns of middle age by beginning with high hopes for a joyful day and ending with an eye toward the speaker's legacy to future generations.

- Эпиталамион — ода Эдмунда Спенсера, написанная им своей невесте, Элизабет Бойл, в день их свадьбы. Впервые была опубликована в 1595 году в Лондоне в книге «Amoretti and Epithalamion» (на илл.). В книгу вошли 89 сонетов (Amoretti) и собственно «Anacreontics». Сохранилось шесть копий первого издания, в том числе один в Шекспировской библиотеке Фолджера и один в Бодлианской библиотеке. Ода начинается с обращения к Музам просьбой помочь жениху. Далее описан день свадьбы, от часов ожидания перед рассветом, когда автор ждет, пока его невеста проснется, до поздних часов ночи после того, как Спенсер и Бойл завершили свадьбу. При этом автор выражает надежду на плодородие чрева невесты, чтобы у них могло быть много детей. Автор тщательно записывает часы дня от рассвета до поздней брачной ночи: 24 раздела оды соответствуют часам в день летнего солнцестояния. Содержание оды переходит от энтузиазма молодости к проблемам среднего возраста, начиная с больших надежд на радостный день и заканчивая посланием будущим поколениям. (ru)
