William of Shoreham
text:
William of Shoreham was an English poet. Little is known of his life, but he probably lived in Shoreham, Kent and was vicar of Chart Sutton. Seven poems in English are attributed to him, all contained in a single manuscript now in the British Library. Four of the poems are didactic and address points of Christian doctrine, the other three are in praise of the Virgin Mary. He was once thought to be the author of an English psalter, but this is now considered spurious.
