We've learned about John Wilmot's incredibly libertine life, but it's time to strap in and strap-on for some of his full, filthy, 17th century poems in this episode-length Poetry Corner! First Wilmot spurts beautiful rhymes a bit early in his premature ejaculation poem, "The Imperfect Enjoyment." Then in "The Disabled Debauchee" an old man hopes the next generation will be even more lecherous and dirty than he was. And finally, a warning to men to step up their game in the bedroom, lest they be outperformed by "Signior Dildo"!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

John Wilmot was a lusty lord who wrote some of the dirtiest poetry in the Restoration era about everything from dildos to public sex to premature ejaculation! He also abducted an heiress, pretended to be a gynecologist, trained one of the great tragic actresses of the day, and had affairs with men and women alike. All his drunken shenanigans constantly got him into trouble with King Charles II, but his charm and way with words always got him welcomed back… until they didn't.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He kidnapped his wife and got locked up in the Tower of London. He slept around King Charles II's court, and drunk to excess for years before dying from syphilis and alcoholism. He became a war hero but grew disillusioned by religion and monogomy. He also wrote some of the filthiest poetry of all time. Who are we talking about? John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester.Today Kate is joined by two special guests Betwixt the Sheets. Neil Gaiman, who will be reading some of his favourite Rochester poems, and historian Rebecca Rideal, who will be taking us through the wild life of this 17th century libertine.To find out more about Rebecca Rideal's work and podcast, click here.*CONTENT WARNING: There are adult themes and explicit words in this episode.

In this sixth season of The Well Read Poem, we will read a number of examples of classic satire in verse. English poetry is particularly rich in satire, and we will take a close look at some of the best instances of literary mockery that the past several centuries have bequeathed to us. Some of these are playfully teasing, while others are deliberately savage. All of them taken together, I trust, will provide a happy introduction to the fine art of verbal annihilation. Today's poem is  a selection from “A Satire Against Mankind” by John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester. Poem begins at timestamp 3:50. Selection from “A Satire Against Mankind”  by John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester Were I - who to my cost already am One of those strange, prodigious creatures, man -  A spirit free to choose for my own share What sort of flesh and blood I pleased to wear,  I'd be a dog, a monkey, or a bear, Or anything but that vain animal, Who is so proud of being rational. His senses are too gross; and he'll contrive  A sixth, to contradict the other five; And before certain instinct will prefer  Reason, which fifty times for one does err.  Reason, an ignis fatuus of the mind, Which leaving light of nature, sense, behind, Pathless and dangerous wand'ring ways it takes,  Through Error's fenny bogs and thorny brakes; Whilst the misguided follower climbs with pain  Mountains of whimsey's, heaped in his own brain;  Stumbling from thought to thought, falls headlong down,  Into Doubt's boundless sea where, like to drown, Books bear him up awhile, and make him try  To swim with bladders of Philosophy; In hopes still to o'ertake the escaping light;  The vapour dances, in his dancing sight, Till spent, it leaves him to eternal night.  Then old age and experience, hand in hand,  Lead him to death, make him to understand,  After a search so painful, and so long, That all his life he has been in the wrong: Huddled In dirt the reasoning engine lies, Who was so proud, so witty, and so wise.

The Dying LoverI cannot change, as others do,Though you unjustly scorn;Since that poor swain that sighs for you,For you alone was born.No, Phyllis, no, your heart to moveA surer way I'll try:And to revenge my slighted love,Will still love on, will still love on, and die.When, killed with grief, Amintas liesAnd you to mind shall call,The sighs that now unpitied rise,The tears that vainly fall,That welcome hour that ends this smartWill then begin your pain;For such a faithful tender heartCan never break, can never break in vain.Find us online at thatsnotcanon.com/epigraphySubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

The Dying LoverI cannot change, as others do,Though you unjustly scorn;Since that poor swain that sighs for you,For you alone was born.No, Phyllis, no, your heart to moveA surer way I'll try:And to revenge my slighted love,Will still love on, will still love on, and die.When, killed with grief, Amintas liesAnd you to mind shall call,The sighs that now unpitied rise,The tears that vainly fall,That welcome hour that ends this smartWill then begin your pain;For such a faithful tender heartCan never break, can never break in vain.Find us online at thatsnotcanon.com/epigraphySubscribe to us on ITUNES, STITCHER, SPOTIFY, RADIOPUBLIC or your podcatcher of choice.Find us on FACEBOOK, TWITTER or INSTAGRAM.

Production and Sound Design by Kevin Seaman Upon NothingBY JOHN WILMOT EARL OF ROCHESTERNothing! thou elder brother even to Shade:That hadst a being ere the world was made,And well fixed, art alone of ending not afraid. Ere Time and Place were, Time and Place were not,When primitive Nothing Something straight begot;Then all proceeded from the great united What. Something, the general attribute of all,Severed from thee, its sole original,Into thy boundless self must undistinguished fall; Yet Something did thy mighty power command,And from fruitful Emptiness’s handSnatched men, beasts, birds, fire, air, and land. Matter the wicked’st offspring of thy race,By Form assisted, flew from thy embrace,And rebel Light obscured thy reverend dusky face. With Form and Matter, Time and Place did join;Body, thy foe, with these did leagues combineTo spoil thy peaceful realm, and ruin all thy line; But turncoat Time assists the foe in vain,And bribed by thee, destroys their short-lived reign,And to thy hungry womb drives back thy slaves again. Though mysteries are barred from laic eyes,And the divine alone with warrant priesInto thy bosom, where truth in private lies, Yet this of thee the wise may truly say,Thou from the virtuous nothing dost delay,And to be part with thee the wicked wisely pray. Great Negative, how vainly would the wiseInquire, define, distinguish, teach, devise,Didst thou not stand to point their blind philosophies! Is, or Is Not, the two great ends of Fate,And True or False, the subject of debate,That perfect or destroy the vast designs of state— When they have racked the politician’s breast,Within thy Bosom most securely rest,And when reduced to thee, are least unsafe and best. But Nothing, why does Something still permitThat sacred monarchs should at council sitWith persons highly thought at best for nothing fit, While weighty Something modestly abstainsFrom princes’ coffers, and from statemen’s brains,And Nothing there like stately Nothing reigns? Nothing! who dwell’st with fools in grave disguiseFor whom they reverend shapes and forms devise,Lawn sleeves, and furs, and gowns, when they like thee look wise: French truth, Dutch prowess, British policy,Hibernian learning, Scotch civility,Spaniards’ dispatch, Danes’ wit are mainly seen in thee. The great man’s gratitude to his best friend,Kings’ promises, whores’ vows—towards thee may bend,Flow swiftly into thee, and in thee ever end.

Today on The Literary Life Podcast, our hosts Angelina Stanford and Cindy Rollins, along with Thomas Banks, are discussing chapters 4-10 of Northanger Abbey. They start out talking about Jane Austen’s light touch and her gentle satirical way of pointing out the pros and cons of the novel. Angelina and Thomas bring up some of the historical and social context for this setting in Regency period Bath. They contrast the proper social code with the way the Thorpes behave and with Catherine Morland’s naïvetè and innocence. Cindy laughs about the way in which Jane Austen pokes fun at the novel’s form while writing a novel herself. After the critics’ early disgust for the novel, Jane Austen elevated the form to the point that they finally had to recognize the novel as a worthy work of literature. Cindy also brings up the idea that Austen may have partly written this novel because she wanted to talk with others about all these books that she references. They chat about all the things that occurred in history that led up to the availability of the novel to the masses, and to women in particular. Angelina observes that Austen plays with the tropes within a realistic situation in contrast to the over-the-top situations presented in sensational novels of the period. They wrap up the conversation with highlights about the different characters and what we can be looking for in the next several chapters.

Love and Live by John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester All my past life is mine no more, The flying hours are gone, Like transitory dreams giv’n o’er, Whose images are kept in store By memory alone. The time that is to come is not; How can it then be mine? The present moment’s all my lot; And that, as fast as it is got, Phyllis, is only thine. Then talk not of inconstancy, False hearts, and broken vows; If I, by miracle, can be This live-long minute true to thee, ’Tis all that Heav’n allows. Book List: Summer Lightning by P. G.

John Wilmot, the poster boy for what was called “A rake”, which is short for rakehell, which is a synonym for "hellraiser” It was a term popular in the 1600’s that described a womanizing man with a penchant for debauchery. In other words, John was a libertine.

Meg Rosoff, who completed the new novel Beck by her friend Mal Peet after he passed away, and Samantha Norman, who finished her mother Ariana Franklin's historical thriller Winter Siege, discuss the challenges - and joys - of completing books after the death of their authors.Actor Dominic Cooper and director Terry Johnson discuss their new production of The Libertine, Stephen Jeffreys' 1994 play about the rake and poet John Wilmot who scandalised the court of Charles II.

In GBA 169 we get better acquainted with James McKay. He talks us through Victorian poetry recitals, classical literature and history, plundering and re-contextualising the canon, the relationship between the Moomins and Zen thinking, putting on gigs in your front room and being an "Arts Thatcherite". If all of that sounds dry and worthy and highbrow then think again as this conversation is very much the opposite of that.

Jim and Drew reconvene to discuss the decadence of John Wilmot, the current spate of dumb white guys saying stupid things, late night transit in San Francisco and finding maggots in a Whole Foods as opposed to hitting up the Manila Market in Daly City.

"Love And Life" by John Wilmot, Earl of Rochester (1647-1680) Directed by Kaz Mata-Mura Performed by Lee Magnuson

John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester was an English Libertine poet, a friend of King Charles II, and the writer of much satirical and bawdy poetry. He was the toast of the Restoration court and a patron of the arts. He married an heiress, Elizabeth Malet, and had many mistresses, including the actress Elizabeth Barry.

J Wilmott read by Classic Poetry Aloud: Giving voice to the poetry of the past. www.classicpoetryaloud.com -------------------------------------------- Give Me Leave to Rail at You by John Wilmot (1647 – 1680) Give me leave to rail at you, - I ask nothing but my due: To call you false, and then to say You shall not keep my heart a day. But alas! against my will I must be your captive still. Ah! be kinder, then, for I Cannot change, and would not die. Kindness has resistless charms; All besides but weakly move; Fiercest anger it disarms, And clips the wings of flying love. Beauty does the heart invade, Kindness only can persuade; It gilds the lover's servile chain, And makes the slave grow pleased again.

To show my love, I will compose ye, For your fair finger's ring, a posy, In which shall be expressed my duty, And how I'll be forever true t'ye. With low-made legs and sugared speeches, Yielding to your fair bum the breeches, I'll show myself, in all I can, Your faithful, humble servant, John.

Beauty does the heart invade, Kindness only can persuade; It gilds the lover's servile chain, And makes the slave grow pleased again.
