A departure from the exclusively American poets of the other early songs, these Cavalier Lyrics grew out of Baber's exposure to the madrigal style, along with amorous 17th-century poetry, in high school. Shakespeare, who is technically not one of the Cavaliers, is represented by Baber's earliest setting of "Take, O, Take," very much in the Cavalier manner. "The Seas are Quiet," by the more religious Edmund Waller, provides a counterweight to the general tone of the collection.
