The true story of the life of Michael Drayton might be told to, vindicate the poetic traditions of the olden time. A child-poet wandering in fay-haunted Arden, or listening to the harper that frequented the fireside of Polesworth Hall where the boy was a petted page, later the honoured almoner of the bounty of many patrons, one who not unworthily, as Tofte said, beareth the name of the chiefest archangel, singing after this soule-ravishing manner, yet leaving but five pounds lying by him at his death, which was satis viatici ad coelum-is not this the panorama of a poetic career? But above all, to complete the picture of the ideal poet, he worshipped, and hopelessly, from youth to age the image of one, woman.
