Selections from American Poetry, With Special Reference to Poe, Longfellow, Lowell and Whittier
Contents:
Michael Wigglesworth (1631-1705)
"He was, himself, in nearly all respects, the embodiment of what was great earnest, and sad, in Colonial New England.... In spite, however,
of all offences, of all defects, there are in his poetry an irresistible sincerity, a reality, a vividness, reminding one of similar qualities in the prose of John Bunyan."
M. C. TYLER.
Born in England, he was brought to America at the age of seven. He graduated from Harvard College and then became a preacher. He later added the profession of medicine and practiced both professions.
