The hell-raising John Wilmot, second Earl of Rochester, died in the bosom of the Anglican church at the age of thirty-three, worn out by a life of drunkenness and debauchery. A fascinatingly contradictory figure, Rochester was indissolubly linked with the court and leader of the so-called "merry gang" of aristocratic wits, and played the part of the savagest noble in Charles II's notoriously feral entourage.
