About This Book

A large assemblage of short poems and lyrics ranging from playful songs and convivial verses to hymns, epigrams and occasional pieces. Recurring themes include love and desire, seasonal and rural life, carpe diem admonitions, and reflections on fortune, mortality, and virtue. Forms vary from brisk couplets to longer lyrical stanzas, notable for musical phrasing, vivid natural imagery, wit, and a blend of sensual pleasure with devotional or moral thought.
