This man wrote about a "a house where all were good" in one poem, "In the Valley of the Elwy."
This man wrote about a "a house where all were good" in one poem, "In the Valley of the Elwy." This poet calls himself "Time's eunuch" in one of his poems and begins another saying he will not, "carrion comfort, Despair, feast on thee." Both those appear in his "terrible sonnets." One of his poems is dedicated to nuns "exiles by the Falk Laws" who drowned in a (*) shipwreck, while another sonnet complains that "all is seared with trade; bleared, smeared with toil," but that "for all this, nature is never spent." That poem, has meter based solely on stressed syllables, his "sprung rhythm," as seen in lines like "I caught this morning morning's minion, king- / -dom of daylight's dauphin, dapple-dawn-drawn Falcon." For 10 points, name this Jesuit poet of "God's Grandeur" and "The Windhover."
