Life
Having attended Trinity College, Cambridge, from 1623 and enrolled in Gray's Inn in 1627, the poet inherited his father's estate at the age of 18. Ben Jonson, Thomas Carew, Richard Lovelace, Thomas Nabbes, and especially John Hales and Sir William Davenant, who later provided John Aubrey with details about him. Suckling left London for France and Italy in 1628, not before he was knighted in 1630. He volunteered for a Marquess of Hamilton's army to serve under Gustavus Adolphus in Germany in 1631. He was back in Whitehall in May 1632, having participated in the Battle of Breitenfeld and several sieges.
Suckling's poetic talent was one of many awards, but he was lauded particularly for Charles I and his queen, Henrietta Maria. "Prized black eyes or a lucky strike at bowls above all trophies of wit," he says of himself ("A Sessions of the Poets." Aubrey claims to have invented cribbage and claims that his sisters came weeping to a bowling green in Piccadil to discourage him from playing lest he lose their rights.
Suckling was so fond of cards that he stayed a whole morning with a pack, researching the subtleties of his favorite games. He was not only the best bowler in England, but also the most skilful card-player. Suckling is said to have sent several packs of marked playing cards to aristocratic houses in England and then toured around playing cribbage with the gentry. He won around £20,000.
Sir John Digby, a rival suitor for Sir John Willoughby's daughter, was born in 1634. According to this, the incident, which was chronicled at length in a letter from George Garrard to Thomas Wentworth, the 1st Earl of Strafford's, may have had something to do with his desire to live in a more modern culture. In 1635, he returned to his estates in honor of a Star Chamber order against absentee landlordism and spent his time in literary pursuits. "A Sessions of the Poets" was published in manuscript in 1637, and the same time he wrote a tract on Socinianism: A Reasoning View (printed 1646).
Suckling supported King Charles I in his first Scottish war, raising a troop of a hundred horse at a cost of £12,000 and accompanying Charles on the Scottish expedition of 1639. The Monthly Magazine of American Literature by Putnam covers all states.
In Musarum deliciae, the amusing "pasquil" was "On Sir John Suckling's most warlike preparations for the Scottish war."
During the Short Parliament, Suckling was elected as a member of Bramber in Sussex by a by-election on April 30th. It was argued that he had won by "undue means," but the parliament was dissolved on May 5th in any case.
Suckling wrote a letter to Henry Jermyn, the king's successor, advising him to disconcert the opposition leaders by making more compromises than they expected. In May, he was implicated in the First Army Plot, an attempt to rescue the Earl of Strafford from the Tower and bring in French troops to the king's aid. Colonel George Goring's evidence exposed this. Suckling and others left London on May 641 to escape to France, but they were found guilty of high treason in their absence by Parliament on August 13, 1641.
His brief exile's circumstances are uncertain, and accounts of how he died differ. Alexander Pope, a scholar from Calais, died as a result of a nail nail being protruded into his boot by a servant who refused to give him his money and papers. He was certainly in Paris in the summer of 1641 when Sir Francis Windebanke told his son on July that Parliament had stopped paying pensions to him, Suckling and Jermyn. One pamphlet related to a tale of elopement with a woman to Spain, where he was placed in the custody of the Inquisition. Aubrey's admission that he committed suicide by poison in Paris was generally accepted, owing to a lack of funds. He was buried in a Protestant cemetery. An Elegy, a pamphlet about the Renowned Sir John Sutling (sic), was published in February 1642 or earlier.
