CAWLEY (Thomas): - Verses of Help for All Seasons, By The Late Rev. Thomas Cawley, B. A., Formerly Rector of Bittadon.

Penhanze: Beare and Son, 21, Market Place. 1913. FIRST AND ONLY EDITION. 8vo pamphlet, 163 x 123 mms., pp. [3] 4 - 24, original dark grey wrappers, stapled; wrappers a bit soiled. Thomas Cawley (fl. 1840s-1890s) matriculated from Wadham College, University of Oxford, in 1856, and graduated from Oxford with his B. A. in 1860, as Alumni Oxoniensis identifies him as the man as having become the Rector of Bittadon in Devon. The verses echo quite a few well-known English poems, as well as "Thought art gone up on high," from Handel's Messiah. The last poem, "The Last Voyage," beginning, "There may be moaning at the bar" is clearly an allusions to Tennyson's "Crossing the Bar." No copy located in any repository or online database.
