A diplomat and distinguished politician, the English poet Matthew Prior was noted for verses of amusing urbanity and satirical deftness, as well as for writing some of the most elegant love poetry of the late seventeenth century. Prior essayed graver themes in his masterpiece ‘Solomon on the Vanity of the World’ (1718), framed as a disquisition on the vanity of human knowledge. Lastly, Prior was judged by all as the greatest epigrammatist of his age. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting.
