Extractions: Richard Lovelace The works of Suckling and Lovelace have been linked together as the prime examples of the country lyrics known as Cavalier poetry. Both poets wrote a light and easy kind of verse associated with the court of Charles I. Both affected a tone of gentlemanly nonchalance in their poems; both were courtiers under Charles. Suckling came from an extremely wealthy family and used up his inheritance in extravagant living. At one point he hired one hundred fighting men, dressed them up in fancy uniforms, went off to fight for the king in Scotland, and was roundly beaten by the sullen, unfashionably dressed Scots. When he was not engaged in futile fights, he wasted his wealth in gambling. However, he was also a serious patron of many excellent poets, wrote four plays that were spectacularly staged and published at his own exorbitant cost, and composed the delicate lyrics that have gained him fame for over 300 years. As Parliament rebelled against King Charles and gained control of the government, Suckling joined in a conspiracy to free a Royalist leader from the Tower of London. The plot was exposed and Suckling fled to France. There he died impoverished and in despair. A B C D ... Z

As a poet, the quality of his work ranges from brilliant to pleasant, and is considered one of the greater Cavalier poets. As a Royalist soldier, he donated all of his available funds to the cause. He may have been born in the Netherlands where his father was serving in the military. His education took place at the University of Oxford. Lovelace was heir to a great estate at Kent. At about the age of sixteen, he wrote a comedy, which was entitled The Scholar. Unfortunately, only the prologue and epilogue are in existence today. He took part in expeditions to Scotland during the rebellions against Charles I between 1639 and 1640. In 1642, Lovelace was imprisoned in the Gatehouse in London. While in the Gatehouse, he wrote To Althea from Prison which contains the famous lines, "Stone walls do not a prison make/Nor iron bars a cage." He also wrote To Lucasta, Going to the Wars
