Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essays of Abraham Cowley: With Life by the Editor Hard as he worked, and useful as he was, he seems to have been merely used just so long as he was useful, and during the whole of that time to have longed for leisure and retirement. In 1656 he was sent to Eng land under pretence of seeking this retirement, but in reality to be useful as a spy. Being seized instead of another man, he was not released until he found security of 1000, a heavy sum in those days, which he could not pay, and which was found for him by Dr. Scarborough. In the same year he published his poems, declaring in the preface, that his desire had been for some tme past, and did even now vehemently continue, to retire himself to some of the American plantations, and to for sake this world for ever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essays of Abraham Cowley: With Life by the Editor When Abraham Cowley was buried in Westminster Abbey, near Chaucer and Spenser, King Charles II. pronounced oracularly, "That Mr. Cowley had not left behind him a better man in England." The posthumous praise of princes is, we must remember, one way of paying their debts; and as Cowley had acted as secretary to either Charles, and had been so trusted that he wrote much of their correspondence in cypher, and was rewarded slenderly, if at all, we may believe that with the king such excessive praise was natural. This was in 1667; and Cowley had died at the Porch House in Chertsey, in the forty-ninth year of his age, leaving behind him, as we know, both better men and better poets. It is in writing his life that Doctor Johnson complains of the penury of English biography, and does, one must confess, very little to enrich it.
