Biography: Poet and victim of court intrigue; of The Queen's College, Oxford (BA, 1598), and the Middle Temple; made acquaintance of Robert Carr at Edinburgh, whose adviser at court he became; made sewer to the king and knighted, 1608; travelled in Netherlands, 1609, and is said to have written Observations upon the Seventeen Provinces ; encouraged Rochester's (Carr's) intrigue with Frances Howard, countess of Essex, and is said himself to have attempted intrigue with Lady Rutland; broke with Ben Jonson in consequence; opposed Rochester's marriage with Lady Essex and was supposed cognizant of some secret concerning him; after refusal of diplomatic employment was sent to the Tower, 1613, and there slowly poisoned by agents of Lady Essex, four of whom were hanged, 1615, Somerset (Carr) and his wife (Lady Essex) being convicted, but pardoned. Twenty writers (including Ford ) contributed prefatory verses to his poem 'A Wife' (published 1614), and Ben Jonson credited him with introducing culture into the court. Subsequent editions of `A Wife' have additional compositions of the author, some of doubtful authenticity; his Miscellaneous Works in Verse and Prose edited by Edward F. Rimbault (1856).
