Catalogue information
3 volumes of H.K. Poot's poems. All his own new work is included in 1722, together with the (in many places revised) Mengeldichten of 1716, in the collection of Gedichten van Hubert Korneliszoon Poot. Decorated with art prints. (Delft, Reinier Boitet). This edition is the culmination of his poetic career. This collection also contains a motley collection of poetry: biblical poems, birth poems, wedding poems, funeral poems and funeral poems, hymns and many mixed poems on all kinds of classical humanist themes. The influence of the classical writers, in particular Horace, is again great, often through Vondel's translations. Well-known poems from this collection include: Morgenzang, Zomersche Avont and Winter.
