Anglican Priest

Despite his great education and poetic talents, he lived in poverty for several years, relying heavily on wealthy friends. In 1615 he became an Anglican priest and, in 1621, was appointed the Dean of St Paul's Cathedral in London.

I will never forget his terrible metaphysical poetry I had to study on a University course. Memorable his poem “The Flea”. Try to understand it and let me know what you think.
