Or Epistles to Several Persons
By Alexander Pope
Edited by W. C. Armstrong
Read by Denis Daly
These four poems, which deal with ethical issues, were collated and published in 1751 by William Warburton, seven years after Pope's death.
The poems were inspired by Pope's admiration for Henry St John, 1st Viscount Bolingbroke, a philosopher and Tory politician.
Also included in this recording is Pope's Epistle to Mr (Joseph) Addison.
