摘要

Lewis Morris (1671-1746) was the govenor of colonial New Jersey from 1738-1746 and his family papers are in Rutgers Special Collections. Among these papers are a sheaf of some eighteen poems of the Governor's own composition. Cook discusses his public life and his poetry. He concludes Moris "practiced poetry as a gentlemanly diversion, intended for little more than the private amusement of himself and a few friends. It is perhaps a sufficient tribute to Lewis Morris's satiric vigor that the modern reader, more than two centuries later, can still share some measure of that amusement.".
