Other poets' work paid tribute to Howard. Central to this myth is the ultimate theodicean problem/solution: if power is the essence of government, then God himself can be stormed and “violated”; that is, there is no metaphysical guarantee to enforce the bonds of fidelity between leaders and people. But as a teenager he was sent to the King’s School at Westminster to be trained as a King’s Scholar by the brilliant Royalist headmaster Richard Busby. These are descendants of the Commonwealth’s men who murdered a previous king and who are still bent on the destruction not only of “Kings” but of “Kingly Pow’r” per se.The wit in these lines resides not only in the brilliant imitative spillover of the concluding alexandrine but also in the mock theology: as in the disputes over whether God’s will or his reason be his primary essence, Dryden follows his sarcastic reference to the crowd as “Almighty” with a pseudovoluntarist position, reducing reason or “Wit” to a mere “Attribute.” But, as he had suggested early in his writing,The marvelous irony of the last line works especially well when one reads from the caesura of the penultimate line through the enjambment to fall hard upon the reversed iamb of the last line: the implication is that even He would be forced, like Charles, to declare another son his legitimate heir.

The other parts of that balance have threatened the very Ark of the Covenant, and so David himself now threatens, “Law they require, let Law then shew her Face,” for “Lawfull Pow’r is still Superiour found.” So David will punish the transgressors, who will actually devour themselves by turning against each other. Th’Almighty, nodding, gave Consent: / And Peals of Thunder shook the Firmament.” Dryden’s final touch, then, is a kind of apotheosis: David and God become one: “And willing Nations knew their Lawfull Lord.”On the other hand, Dryden addresses “London, thou great Emporium of our Isle” again in a lamentory mode, and one cannot help remembering his praise of the city in Annus Mirabilis as the emporium of England’s imperialist trade.

Beginning most likely in the summer of 1676, Dryden wrote one of the two greatest satires in English against rival poets, Mac Flecknoe (the other is Pope’s Dunciad, 1728—1743). Dryden would have sided with Edmund Burke against the French Revolution, and he would have been appalled by Thomas Jefferson and Thomas Paine.In 1684 Dryden also published what many consider his best elegiac poem, “To the Memory of Mr. Oldham.” Dryden’s praise is doubly generous: first, he honors this kindred spirit in satire as having arrived at the goal and won the prize, that is, honor in the field of satire per se, before himself; second, Dryden laments Oldham’s early death but insists that longer time would have added nothing to Oldham’s wit and verse but metrical regularity and “the dull sweets of Rime”—like those of Dryden himself in his satires and indeed in this poem. Instead, he moved to the margins of the new order to carry on his critique.In the meantime, the one event Catholics desired most occurred: James and his queen had a son in June 1688.

Yet 20th-century critics do not seem to understand that such wit does not undercut the seriousness of such plays as Dryden responded with a vengeance probably doubled by displaced anger at Rochester and compounded by his own poor fortunes, both literal and figurative, in the first half of the decade. As in Absalom and Achitophel, Dryden spares the virtuous Londoners from blame, but he stridently attacks the “Fool and Knave” who corruptly misdirect the city’s great energies. His family were Parliamentary supporters with Puritan leanings. HOWARD + Az 1660-as és 70-es évek során a színdarab-írás egyenesen a fő bevételi forrását jelentette.
