Restormel: A Legend Of Piers Gaveston, The Patriot Priest, And Other Verses is a book written by Henry Sewell Stokes and published in 1875. The book is a collection of poems that mainly focus on the legends of Piers Gaveston and the Patriot Priest. Piers Gaveston was a close friend and advisor to King Edward II of England, and his story is one of political intrigue, power struggles, and ultimately, tragedy. The Patriot Priest is a figure from Cornish folklore who fought against the tyranny of the English monarchs. Stokes’ poetry is rich in detail and vivid imagery, bringing to life the characters and events of these legends. The poems are written in a variety of styles, from traditional ballads to more modern free verse, and showcase Stokes’ skill as a poet. Overall, Restormel: A Legend Of Piers Gaveston, The Patriot Priest, And Other Verses is a fascinating exploration of two important figures in English history and folklore, and a testament to Stokes’ talent as a poet.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
