Lov'd
The speaker of one of this author's poems spends "a tedious twelve hours' space" loving a woman who questions his fidelity. Another of his speakers will "create/A genuine summer in each other's breast" with the title creature, a "poor verdant fool!" that "swing'st upon the waving ear." This author of "The Scrutiny" would not appease "the foaming blue god's rage" and would withstand any "blast or gale" for a character to whom he admits "true,  a new mistress I now chase," pleading her to "tell me not, sweet, I am unkind." This poet of "The Grasshopper" compared himself to "committed (*) linnets" and notes that "love with unconfined wings/Hovers within my gates." He wrote the lines "I could not love thee (Deare) so much/Lov'd I not Honour More" and "Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage." For 10 points, identify this poet of the Lucasta poems and "To Althea from Prison."
