Edward Caswall

1814–1878


Edward Caswall (1814–1878) was a British clergyman and hymn writer who converted to Catholicism and became an Oratorian priest.

The poems printed here are those given in The Oxford Book of English Mystical Verse (1917), edited by D. H. S. Nicholson and A. H. E. Lee; the text is taken from that anthology.
