Thomas Traherne (c. 1636-1674) was an English poet, clergyman, theologian, and religious writer. Centuries, his best known work, was first published in 1908 after having been miraculously discovered in manuscript ten years earlier. Perhaps more than any spiritual writer of his age, Traherne is profoundly cognizant of the Glory of the Lord as it abides in Creation.
