Bartholomew Griffin

fl. 1596

Bartholomew Griffin (fl. 1596) was an Elizabethan sonneteer who was buried at Coventry in 1602 and is otherwise little known.

His sonnet cycle Fidessa, More Chaste than Kind (1596) was dedicated to William Essex of Lamebourne in Berkshire, and its third sonnet was pirated in 1599 in a volume printed under Shakespeare's name.
