Seatonian Poems

Seatonian Poems is a collection of religious poems written by J.M. Neale, a 19th-century English priest and hymn writer. The poems were originally composed as part of a yearly competition at the University of Cambridge for the Seatonian Prize, which was awarded for the best poem on a theological subject. Neale won the prize several times, and this book collects many of his winning entries. The poems cover a range of topics related to Christianity, including the life of Christ, the nature of God, and the role of faith in everyday life. Neale's writing is characterized by its lyrical and contemplative style, and his poems are considered to be some of the finest examples of religious poetry in the English language. This edition of Seatonian Poems includes an introduction by the editor, as well as notes and annotations to help readers understand the historical and theological context of Neale's work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
