Although he wrote some secular verse in suitably fashionable modes, Henry Vaughan is chiefly valued for his religious poetry. Less worldly than Donne or Herbert, to whom he is indebted, Vaughan wrote poetry both mysterious and richly suggestive. His approach to Christianity, however, cannot be given precise and indisputable definition, as he was strongly influenced by hermeticism and other prevailing currents of mysticism. In addition, his response to nature marks him out from his contemporaries and, in some respects, prefigures nineteenth-century romanticism. This is the most comprehensively annotated edition of Vaughan's complete poems yet to appear and, for the first time, makes a serious attempt to unravel the host of biblical allusions which suffuse his work. - Back cover.

Henry Vaughan (1621-1695) was a metaphysical poet. He was a Welshman, born beside the River Usk in the beautiful Brecon Beacons. Throughout the period of the Civil War, traumatic both for himself and those he loved, Vaughan wrote moving poems which record extreme spiritual experience balanced by intense delight in the natural world. This is the fifth volume of a series of introductory books on seventeenth century spiritual writing. Poetry from all of Vaughan's five collections have been included in this anthology, which Anne Cluysenaar introduces with a scholarly but accessible introduction to Vaughan's life. She provides a valuable initiation into the work of this brilliant seventeenth century poet.
