	Joseph Rodman Drake - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Joseph Rodman Drake (August 17, 1795–September 21, 1820) was an early American poet.
		In 1816 he began to practice medicine and in the same year was married to Sarah, daughter of Henry Eckford, the naval architect.
		In 1819, together with his friend and fellow poet Fitz-Greene Halleck, he wrote a series of satirical verses for the New York Evening Post, which were published under the penname "The Croakers." Drake died a year later, of consumption, at the age of twenty-five.

		The short life of Joseph Rodman Drake has a romantic interest, not only for the charm of his personality and his association with Fitz-Greene Halleck who enshrined his memory in an imperishable lyric, but because of the valor with which he met the doom that overtook him.
		Drake's long poem, "The Culprit Fay," with its charming fancy, was written as a refutation of the charge that American rivers have no romantic associations.
		Drake's early boyhood was a struggle with poverty, but he managed to secure an education and fitted himself to be a physician.

	JOSEPH RODMAN DRAKE PARK - Historical Sign
		The property of Joseph Rodman Drake Park in the Hunts Point area of the Bronx was once the site of a Weckquaesgeek Indian village called Quinnahung, meaning "a long high place" or "the planting neck." During the Revolutionary War, George Washington’s continental troops passed through this plot in their retreat from Long Island.
		Joseph Rodman Drake was a gifted young poet who praised the natural beauty of the Bronx in his verse.
		Although he worked as a physician, Drake is best known as the celebrated author of poems including "The Culprit Fay" and "The American Flag." When he died of tuberculosis at the age of twenty-five on September 21, 1820, Drake was laid to rest in the Hunt family burial ground at the Grange.

		Joseph Rodman Drake (1795–1820) and Fitz-Greene Halleck (1790–1867) are remembered first for a romantic youthful friendship, not common in our literary history.
		Halleck is said to have written the last four lines of Drake’s American Flag, a lyric full of the old-fashioned expansive and defiant Americanism, and, with its flare of imagery and blare of sound, still sure to stir the blood of any one but a professional critic.
		And it was on Drake, dead at twenty-five, that Halleck wrote what is the tenderest, the manliest little elegy of personal loss in American literature, beginning with the familiar lines:

	Poe: Drake-Halleck Review
		Yet such are the puerilities we daily find ourselves called upon to admire, as among the loftiest efforts of the human mind, and which not to assign a rank with the proud trophies of the matured and vigorous genius of England, is to prove ourselves at once a fool; a maligner, and no patriot.
		Bronx, however, is in our opinion, not only the best of the writings of Drake, but altogether a lofty and beautiful poem, upon which his admirers would do better to found a hope of the writer's ultimate reputation than upon the niaiseries of the Culprit Fay.

		The expression "woven air," much insisted upon by the friends of Drake, seems to be accredited to him as original.
		The deficiencies of the whole poem may be best estimated by reading it in connection with "Scots wha hae," with the "Mariners of England," or with "Hohenlinden." It is indebted for its high and most undeserved reputation to our patriotism—not to our judgment.

		The Dictionary of American Biography explains, it was "written during three days, in August 1816, and was prompted by the challenging remark that American rivers are too poorly furnished with mythologicial and legendary lore to be subjects of poetry." Also, it was "long remembered as one of the best American poems".
