Thomas Traherne

1636–1674
Thomas Traherne. Anglican clergyman, poet, and mystic. Rector of Credenhill, Herefordshire; later chaplain to Sir Orlando Bridgeman. His Centuries of Meditations and Christian Ethicks wed Anglican devotional piety to a Neoplatonic vision of felicity and wonder. His manuscripts were lost for over two centuries, rediscovered in 1896.
