Everything about William Pugh Welsh Author totally explained
Captain
William Pugh was a
Royalist, who in
1648 composed a Welsh poem in which loyalty to his king is combined with devotion to the
Roman Catholic Church. He begins by saying that the political evils afflicting Britain are God's punishment for the country's abandonment of the true religion. People were far happier, he proceeds, when the 'Old Faith' prevailed. But a better time is coming. The English
Roundheads will be made square by a crushing defeat, and the king will return "under a golden veil"; the
Mass shall be sung once more, and a bishop shall elevate the host. Here we've evidently a mystical allusion to the King of Kings on His throne in the tabernacle, and this is the theme underlying the whole poem.
