The Task and Other Poems

William Cowper

Beschreibung des Verlags

It is a poem in blank verse by William Cowper. Beginning with a mock-Miltonic passage on the origins of the sofa, it develops into a discursive meditation on the blessings of nature, the retired life and religious faith, with attacks on slavery, blood sports, fashionable frivolity, lukewarm clergy and French despotism among other things.
