Recensioner i media

'This fascinating collection of poetry as it originally appeared in print includes works on religion, politics, domestic and social affairs and mourning by Elizabeth Collett, Mary Evelyn, Rachel Jevon, Elizabeth Rone, May Wells, Elizabeth Tipper, Anne Wentworth, Elizabeth With, and a number of otherwise anonymous young ladies and gentlewomen. Wells offers a divine poem to substitute for profane songs among the impressionable young, Jevon exults upon the return of Charles II, Wentworth reveals a direct revelation to her by Jesus, and Rone reproofs churchmen who refused to read their king's "most gracious declaration." Nary a frail flower exists amongst them; they are proof that even when confined to the topics above, women could always write'. Reference & Research Book News
