William Cowper, c1780-c1800, (1834-1837). Cowper (1731-1800) was one of the most widely read English poets of his day, whose most characteristic work, as in "The Task" or the melodious short lyric "The Poplar Trees" brought a new directness to 18th century nature poetry. Plate 1 from "Lives of Eminent and Illustrious Englishmen, from Alfred the Great to the Latest Times", Vol 6. [Glasgow & Edinburgh, 1834-37]
