A Satyr Against Hypocrites
1671
A Satyr Against Hypocrites is a satirical poem by John Phillips, first published in 1671 during the English Civil War. The poem critiques religious hypocrisy, targeting the contrast between outward piety and internal moral corruption among both clergy and laypeople. Through vivid imagery and humor, Phillips depicts a congregation's absurd behaviors, exploring themes of religious pretense and societal folly, making it a significant reflection of 17th-century English life.
