1672 Richard Corbet Poems English Poetry Charles I Elegy of Queen Anne Austria

 

“Who of late for cleanliness, finds sixpence in her shoe?”

– Richard Corbet

 

Richard Corbet was a 17^th-century English poet whose works were not published until many years after his death – most likely due to his profession as a bishop in the Church of England. In his poems, he mentions St Paul’s Cathedral in London, on the birth of King Charles I, and an elegy on the death of Queen Anne of Austria.
