1641 William Prynne Mount Orgueil PURITAN Poetry Bible Heaven Hell Seas Gardens

William Prynne, a 17th-century Puritan lawyer, was known for his political pamphlets, meditations, and support of the Restoration.

This collection of meditations was written to parallel the life and ministry of Christ and nature.
