Yes, very much interested and needing to do a short paper, actually two. What
period was Carew from, early 17th as Donne, or the Restoration period? I'm also
think on doing something from Chaucer's, Canterbury Tales. Class requires 5-8
pages (once again these are only introductory courses, this class study is on
the Anglo-Saxon to the early 18th cnt. A rather broad swoop of the study). I
shall hit the library for Carew and some more Donne, then I'll see if this will
meet the class requirements. Either way, it will be an interesting research.
Right now I'm study King Lear for another class, love Shakespeare.

You know, I knew you were quoting Carew however, I got lost in my thought and
yes, it is because they were both very similar. Oh well, so much going on. I
always get in trouble this way, my wheels get to spinning anxiously when I
catch the sent of something of interest in a literary work.
Thanks again
Me
