William Habington
William Habington (4 November 1605 – 30 November 1654) was an English poet. Life Habington was born at Hindlip Hall, Worcestershire, and belonged to a well-known Catholic family. His father, Sir Thomas Habington, an antiquary and historical scholar, had been implicated in the plots on behalf of Mary, Queen of Scots; his uncle, Sir Edward Habington, was beheaded in 1586 on the charge of conspiring against Elizabeth I in connection with Sir Anthony Babington; while to his mother, Mary Habington, was attributed the revelation of the Gunpowder Plot. The poet received his education in Paris and Saint-Omer. The information given by Anthony à Wood in his ''Athenae'' that Habington returned to England "to escape the importunity of the Jesuits to join their order" rests only on a vague statement made by the ex-Catholic James Wadsworth in his ''English Spanish Pilgrim''. He married about 1632 Lucy, second daughter of Sir William Herbert, 1st Baron Powis, the dedicatee of his first bo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
