About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox volunteers bring you 8 recordings of Goodfriday, 1613. Riding Westward by John Donne. This was the Weekly Poetry project for April 9, 2017. Read in English by Algy Pug; Bruce Kachuk; Eva Davis; Newgatenovelist; Lee Ann Howlett; MaryAnnS; Tony Addison and Tomas Peter. John Donne was an English poet and cleric in the Church of England. Despite his great education and poetic talents, Donne lived in poverty for several years, relying heavily on wealthy friends. He spent much of the money he inherited during and after his education on womanising, literature, pastimes, and travel. In 1601, Donne secretly married Anne More, with whom he had twelve children. In 1615, he became an Anglican priest, although he did not want to take Anglican orders. He did so because King James I persistently ordered it. In 1621, he was appointed the Dean of St Paul's Cathedral in London. He also served as a member of Parliament in 1601 and in 1614. ( Wikipedia)
