Synopsis
Comus And Other Poems by John Milton. This collection assembles Milton's verse and dramatic verse in the early modern English libertine of the 17th century, featuring the celebrated masque Comus, a moral allegory of virtue defended against temptation, along with pastoral entertainments and companion pieces. Included works range from Arcades, a masque-like celebration of harmony and virtue in Arcadian setting, to the companion poems L'Allegro and Il Penseroso, exploring cheerful and contemplative temperaments. The volume also contains Lycidas, a memorial elegy for a drowned friend; On the Morning of Christ's Nativity; At a Solemn Musick; and a cycle of Sonnets, all testifying to Milton's range from pastoral lyric to religious and philosophical meditation. The present edition relies on the texts of the 1645 and 1673 editions and a facsimile of the autograph manuscript for minor poems, printed at Cambridge University Press in 1906. The works probe virtue, memory, nature, and devotion, blending classical myth, Christian imagery, and English poetic craft to shape a long-standing tradition in English poetry.
