This author vowed to sing of “brooks, of blossoms, birds and bowers,” and of “times trans-shifting” in an opening poem that summarizes a 1,200-poem collection by him. The speaker’s tendrils crawl to embrace Lucia in a poem by this author whose speaker “was metamorphosed to a vine.” This author of “The Argument of his Book” wrote about being more attracted to the “wild civility” of a “careless shoe-string” than clothes “too (*) precise in every part.” The declaration that “that age is best which is the first” appears in a poem by this author that tells lovers to “while ye may, go marry.” This Cavalier poet included a poem beginning “Gather ye rose-buds while ye may” in his collection Hesperides. For 10 points, name this author of “To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time.” ■END■
