On the death of Donne, it is natural that his friend Edward Herbert should write him an elegy full of high-flown and exaggerated Metaphysical logic.[14] In a similar way, Abraham Cowley marks the deaths of Crashaw[15] and of another member of Donne's literary circle, Henry Wotton.[16] Here, however, though Cowley acknowledges Crashaw briefly as a writer ("Poet and saint"), his governing focus is on how Crashaw's goodness transcended his change of religion.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-4198.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-4198.txt
