He died on the 21st of See also:October 1662, and was buried in See also:Westminster See also:Abbey. Lawes's name has become known beyond musical circles by his friendship with See also:Milton, whose See also:Comus he supplied with incidental music for the performance of the masque in 1634. The poet in return immortalized his friend in the famous See also:sonnet in which Milton, with a musical See also:perception not See also:common amongst poets, exactly indicates the See also:great merit of Lawes. His careful See also:attention to the words of the poet, the manner in which his music seems to grow from those words, the perfect coincidence of the musical with the metrical See also:accent, all put Lawes's songs on a level with those of See also:Schumann or See also:Liszt or any See also:modern composer. At the same time he is by no means wanting in genuine melodic invention, and his concerted music shows the learned contrapuntist.
