[The author] suggest[s] the way in which Spenser's poem is gradually shaped by an analogy of inner and outer government, between the legends of temperance and justice; and analogy of sexual and social love, between the legends of chastity and friendship; and an analogy of theological and human grace, between the legends of holiness and courtesy. These are the poem's basic canons of coherence, or perhaps analogies of coherence. -Preface.
