Rosalinde
(3 syl.). The anagram of “Rose Danil” or “Rose Daniel,” with
whom Spenser was in love, but the young lady married John Florio,
lexicographer. In the Shepherds' Calendar Rose is called
“Rosalinde,” and Spenser calls himself “Colin Clout.” Shakespeare
introduces John Florio in Love's Labour's Lost, under the
imperfect anagram Holofernes (Hnes Floreo).
