By William Cowper

These volumes complete the Oxford English Texts edition of Cowper's poems, and include most of his finest works, from such frequently anthologized short poems as "The Poplar-Field" and "The Retired Cat" to such longer works as "The Cast-Away." Volume II also contains his masterpiece, The Task: a reflection on his own life and the England of his day, and one of the most approachable of the great English poems.
