Simon Bradstreet is married and still writes while raising eight children and doing housework. Without her consent, her brother-in-law brought her poems to England and published them under the title "The Tenth Muse Emerged in America Recently" (1650), which surprised her. The first edition of The Tenth Muse in America was revised, expanded and published, and its title was changed to Seven Poems Full of Wit and Knowledge. Most of these poems are long imitations, and only the last two poems, Void of Everything in the World and David's Lamentations for Saul and Jonathan, are unique in style and pure in artistic conception. Some of her later poems were written to her family, showing her spiritual growth after wholeheartedly accepting Puritanism. These poems, such as "Soul and Body", are loved because they don't preach. She also wrote some touching and more personal poems, including "Dedicated to My Dear Hu" and "Everything in the world hates the end", which described her thoughts before giving birth to a child; With heartbroken and trembling hands, I wrote down the death of a grandson.
