Oh, this is just too good!

For anyone interested some of the Second Earl of Rochester's poems can be found here. http://www.poeforward.com/poetrycorner/wilmot/poems.htm

He was played by Johnny Depp in the movie "The Libertine." http://imdb.com/title/tt0375920/

Has anyone seen this movie? Is it any good?

Best just to read the poems. I haven't read them in a decade... Thanks for reminding me CbC..... You got me to claw through to the back of my poetry shelves.
