CHALKHILL, JOHN (fl. r600?)

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 807 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAU-CHA
CHALKHILL, JOHN (fl. r600?) , English poet. Two songs by him are included in Izaak Walton's Compleat Angler, and in 1683 appeared "Thealma and Clearchus. A
Pastoral
  History in smooth and easie Verse. Written long since by John
Chalkhill
 , Esq., an Acquaintant and Friend of Edmund
Spencer
  " (1683), with a preface written five years earlier by Walton. Another poem, " Alcilia, Philoparthens Loving Follie " (1595, reprinted in vol. x. of the Jahrbuch des deutschen Shakespeare- Vereins), was at one time attributed to him. Nothing further is known of the poet, but a person of his name occurs as one of the coroners for
Middlesex
  in the later years of Queen Elizabeth's reign. Professor Saintsbury, who included Thealma and Clearchus in vol. ii. of his
Minor
  Poets of the Caroline Period (Oxford, 1906), points out a marked resemblance between his
work
  and that of William Chamberlayne.
