Overview
An entirely new selection of George Herbert's verse, this beautiful volume illustrates Herbert's preeminence as one of the masters of metaphysical verse. Herbert began his career as Fellow and Public Orator at Cambridge, and, after making his way toward ordination as a priest of the Church of England, became rector of the parish of Fuggleston-cum-Bemerton, near Sailsbury, in 1630. His first book of poems, The Temple, was published in 1633, some months after his death, and his prose treatise, The Country Parson, did not appear until 1652. His poems, however, met with immediate favor upon publication, and have remained enduringly popular. These poems of great subtlety and wit continue to enlighten as they have since the seventeenth century.
