Who is Henry Austin?
Henry Austin was an English poet postulated by Alexander Balloch Grosart as author of The Scourge of Venus, or the Wanton Lady. With the Rare Birth of Adonis. The Second Impression, corrected and enlarged, by H. A.. Grosart's identification in the Dictionary of National Biography depended on a remark about "Austin" by Thomas Heywood. The modern Oxford Dictionary of National Biography notes that this identification rested on a confusion of works by Ovid. It also states that later editors did not accept Grosart's view of the identity of "H. A.".
