Thomas Campion (1567-1620) was a typical product of the Elizabethan age. He was a modestly talented musician and a passable poet, but it was when these two pastimes came together that Campion shone. He contributed poems to one of Philip Rosseter's books of [lute song]]s. Some years later he released his own arrangements in which the words and music fit exceptionally well together.
