For more than 200 years, Thomas Traherne's Centuries of Meditations
was undiscovered and unpublished. The manuscript passed through
many hands before finally being compiled into a book by bookseller
and scholar BERTRAM DOBELL (1842-1914) in 1908. Centuries is a
collection of poems written to express the rapture of life lived in
accordance with God. Yet Dobell is careful to state that even
though Traherne was a clergyman, there is plenty of beauty to be
found in his poetry that does not require specific belief in
Christianity or in God. Readers of many ages and persuasions will
be touched by Traherne's passages on love and belonging.
