Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Thomas Traherne: 1636?-1674; From the Original Manuscripts; With a Memoir of the Author
The author Of the poems contained in the present volume belongs to that small group of religious poets which includes Herbert, Vaughan, and Crashaw, though he is much more nearly allied to the authors of The Temple and Silex Scintillans than to the lyrist of Roman Catholicism. Yet he is neither a follower nor an imitator of any of these, but one who draws his inspiration from sources either peculiar to himself or made his own by the moulding force of his own fervent spirit.
