The Fettered and the Flea: A New Poem by Edmund Waller☆

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 41-54, February 2026.
Abstract This contribution explores for the first time a 22‐line poem in a British Library manuscript, ‘To a young lady that kept a flea chay’nd in a box’, which can be convincingly ascribed to Edmund Waller. Its most famous relative is Donne’s ‘The Flea’, but its ancestry differs.
