Robert Silliman Hillyer (June 3, 1895-December 24, 1961) was an American poet.
Hillyer is remembered as a kind of villain by Ezra Pound scholars who associate him with his 1949 attacks on The Pisan Cantos in the Saturday Review of Literature which sparked the Bollingen Controversy.

 The Harvard Crimson :: News :: The Bookshelf
For a large number of disconcerted readers who are mystified by some of the modern excursions into versification, Robert Hillyer's "First Principles of Verse" will allow them to regain their equilibrium by its clear presentation of the fundamental elements of poetry.

Hillyer as a poet and a teacher has written a valuable book for anyone interested in verse.

 Poetry Life and Times, Vallance Review, August 2004
Robert Hillyer will not brook either the frittering away of his life or that of his beloved or of any living being in the face of the relentless onslaught of the hyper accumulating seasons, or the tyranny of Time itself, which presumes to efface our humanity in the hollow triumph of death.
Whether or not Robert Hillyer was familiar with this sonnet in particular is perhaps a moot point (though I quite suspect he was).
While Robert Hillyer may be classed in the constellation of the Silver Poets, this one sonnet in particular stands out head and shoulders over all his others, and is, to my mind at least, one of the truly Golden Sonnets of the ages.
