Complete Poems and Plays by John Wilmot Rochester

This book is part of the "Everyman" series which has been re-set with wide margins and easy-to-read type and includes a themed introduction, a chronology of the life and times of the author and notes to each poem. The text is based on a close re-examination of the earliest editions by John Wilmot, Second Earl of Rochester. His poems include love lyrics and poems of impotence, debauchery and erotic obsession. His satires examine a variety of themes - the vacuous social life of Tunbridge Wells, night-time activities in St James's Park and Charles II and his court.
