Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a fascinating 17th-century text, presents enticing poetry from a lively group of poets, Sir John Mennis and Dr. James Smith.

Their work, sometimes bawdy and irreverent, offers a unique insight into the era, capturing its spirit and social dynamics with great vividness. The authors explore themes of love, loss, politics, religion, and everyday life, providing a rich tapestry of human experience in a tumultuous time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
