The collected poems of the Royalist soldier-poet Richard Lovelace: the Lucasta of 1649 and the posthumous poems of 1659. Here are the songs to Lucasta going beyond the seas and to the wars, “To Althea, from Prison” with its stone walls that do not a prison make, lyrics on the grasshopper and the snail, and many love poems.

Elegant Cavalier verse whose best lines have passed into the language. Download the free EPUB.
