The Everlasting Mercy information


Cover of the first edition

The Everlasting Mercy is a poem by John Masefield, the UK's second longest serving poet laureate after Alfred, Lord Tennyson.[1]

It was published in 1911 and is styled as the confession of a man who has turned from sin to Christianity. As a work that first made Masefield famous, it shocked early 20th-century British sensibilities with its direct, honest, and therefore often harsh language, as the life of protagonist violent, drunken womanizer Saul Kane is laid out in detail.
