Skillful rhyming verse. “Ignatius Royston Dunnachie Campbell, better known as Roy Campbell (1901 – 1957), was a South African poet, literary critic, literary translator, war poet and satirist. Most of his adult life was spent in Europe. Born into a white South African family of Scottish descent in Durban, Colony of Natal, Campbell was sent to England to attend Oxford University. Instead, he failed the entrance exam and drifted into London's literary bohemia. Following his marriage to the bohemian Englishwoman Mary Garman, he wrote the well-received poem The Flaming Terrapin which brought the Campbells into the highest circles of British literature.”—Wikipedia. The Campbells lived in Spain prior to the Spanish Civil War, and according to Laurie Lee, who was their guest and wrote fondly of them, they were devout Catholics.
