John
Greenleaf Whittier (December 17, 1807 – September 7, 1892) was an influential
American Quaker poet and ardent advocate of the abolition of slavery in the
United States. He is usually listed as one of the Fireside Poets. Whittier was
strongly influenced by the Scottish poet Robert Burns. Highly regarded in his
lifetime and for a period thereafter, he is now remembered for his poem Snow-Bound, and the words of the hymn Dear Lord and Father of Mankind, from his poem "The Brewing of Soma",
sung to music by Hubert Parry (From
