Thomas Habington (156o-1647), an See also:antiquary and See also:historical See also:scholar, had been implicated in the plots on behalf of See also:Mary See also:queen of Scots; his See also:uncle, See also:Edward Habington, was hanged in 1586 on the See also:charge of conspiring against See also:Elizabeth in connexion with See also:Anthony See also:Babington; while to his See also:mother, Mary Habington, was attributed the See also:revelation of the See also:Gunpowder See also:Plot. The poet was sent to the See also:college at St Omer, but, pressure being brought to See also:bear on him to induce him to become a Jesuit, he removed to See also:Paris. He married about 1632 See also:Lucy, second daughter of See also:Sir William See also:Herbert, first See also:Baron Powys. This See also:lady he had addressed in the See also:volume of lyrical poems arranged in two parts and entitled Castara, published anonymously in 1634. In 1635 appeared a second edition enlarged by three See also:prose characters, fourteen new lyrics and eight touching elegies on his friend and kinsman, See also:George See also:Talbot. The third edition (164o) contains a third See also:part consisting of a prose See also:character of " A See also:Holy See also:Man " and twenty-two devotional poems. Habington's lyrics are full of the far-fetched " conceits " which were fashionable at See also:court, but his See also:verse is quite See also:free from the prevailing looseness of morals. Indeed his reiterated praises of Castara's virtue grow wearisome. He is at his best in his reflective poems on the uncertainty of human See also:life and kindred topics. He also wrote a Historie of Edward the See also:Fourth (164o), based on notes provided by his father; a tragi-See also:comedy, The Queene of Arragon (164o), published without his consent by his kinsman, the See also:earl of See also:Pembroke, and revived at the Restoration; and six essays on events in See also:modern See also:history, Observations upon History (1641). Anthony a See also:Wood insinuated that during the See also:Commonwealth the poet" did run with the times, and was not unknown to See also:Oliver the usurper." He died on the 30th of November 16 J4.
The See also:works of Habington have not been collected. The Queene of Arragon was reprinted in See also:Dodsley's"Old Plays," vol.ix.(1825) ; Castara was edited by See also:Charles See also:Elton (1812), and by E.
