"The Task" is particularly known for its exploration of nature, everyday life, and the poet's personal reflections. Hymns and Religious Themes: In addition to his secular poetry, Cowper collaborated with John Newton on the Olney Hymns, contributing several hymns that became widely known in Christian worship.
