Now at the last gasp of Love's latest breath, When, his pulse failing, Passion speechless lies, When Faith is kneeling by his bed of death, And Innocence is closing up his eyes, Now if thou wouldst, when all have given him over, From death to life thou mightst him yet recover.

Michael Drayton Michael Drayton spent the early part of his life in the service of Sir Henry Goodeere, who furnished him with a proper education. More is know of his work than his life, for he published a considerable amount of poetry in a career spanning some forty years. He convered a wide range of subjects in a variety of genres. In 1593 he published Idea, the Shepheard's Garland and the following year Ideas Mirrour , a collection of sonnets. He also wrote a number of historical poems including Piers Gaveston Robert of Normandy The Barrons Wars and The Legend of Great Cromwell (1607). His Poems Lyrick and Pastorall (1605) is written in the style of Horace's Odes and contains the Ballad of Agincourt . His major topographical poem of England, Polyolbion , was completed in 1622. During his lifetime Drayton was known as "our English Ovid", a title earned from his England's Heroical Epistles (1597), a collection of imaginary letters exchanged by famous historical lovers.

[Content] www.literaryheritage.org.uk Home People Places Themes ... Site map Michael Drayton Profile Poet. Born at Hartshill , Warwickshire. He entered the household of Sir Henry Goodere of Polesworth , a patron of the arts who ensured that he was given a good education. Almost one of the family, Michael Drayton became besotted with his patron's daughter, Anne, and he was to write poetry about her, in the form of an "Idea". He continued to visit her after she was married and living at Clifford Chambers , south of Stratford-upon-Avon. Little is known of his life, except what can be gleaned from his copius writings, but he was able to eke out a living by attracting further patrons, spending most of his adult life in London. Although never achieving royal patronage he could count on the friendship of many of the poets and playwrights of the time. His fortunes declined towards the end of his life but he had the distinction of being buried in Westminster Abbey where there is a monument to him. A less obvious form of memorial, a stone bus shelter in the shape of a scroll, has been erected in his honour at Hartshill Green. His first work to be published was The harmony of the church (1591) which was based on Old Testament writings. Two years later
