He was a contemporary of the older Virgil and Horace, with whom he is often ranked as one of the three canonical poets of Latin literature. b.43 BC Robert Herrick was a 17th-century English lyric poet and cleric. He is best known for Hesperides, a book of poems. b.1591 d.1674 John Donne was an English scholar, poet, soldier and secretary born into a catholic family, a remnant of the Catholic Revival, who reluctantly became a cleric in the Church of England.
