[4] Henry's claim to the throne, however, derived from his mother through the House of Beaufort. Henry's mother, Lady Margaret Beaufort, was a great-granddaughter of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, third son of Edward III, and his third wife Katherine Swynford.

The Medici’s through careful marriage matches and taking control of the financial banking[2], rose to power as papal bankers after the Black Plague in 1348-49.
Rimbaud has had a profound effect on many celebrated poets since his death in late 1891 after being diagnosed with cancer. While The Drunken Boat was written in four-line rhyming stanzas, his writing in his later poetry, Illuminations and A Season in Hell, can be described as “stream of consciousness”—a way of writing poetry that creates long passages of unbroken prose; many of the “beat generation” poets followed his example. The most well known was Jack Kerouak who wrote On the Road, an entire book written without punctuation or pages—all on a single scroll of paper inserted into a typewriter. Other beat poets, such as Allen Ginsberg, were also heavily influenced by Rimbaud. In the last stanza of The Drunken Boat Rimbaud writes, “Nor swim past prison hulks' hateful eyes!” Ginsberg expands on Rimbaud's description of prison when he writes, in the second part of his poem, Howl: “Moloch the incomprehensible prison!

“The Horse Whisperer” is told through a first person narrative, and tells the story of a horse whisperer’s fall from grace; from a revered and much needed citizen to an ostracized and exiled “witch”, who becomes hounded for his “gifts” by the community. The poem is told with a reflective tone; the persona has an on going sense of grief and longing for his former glory, which eventually turns into vengeance. There is ambiguity to whether the persona is male or female, as there is absent information regarding who the whisper is, overall suggesting the persona speaks for whisperers everywhere. However we can presume the persona is male, as whispering was a predominantly male occupation. The poem is a free verse composition however Forster manipulates the form.
