"The Sundew" is a poem written by Algernon Charles Swinburne, a Victorian-era English poet and playwright known for his lyrical and decadent style. Swinburne (1837-1909) was a prominent figure in the literary circles of his time and was associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood.

In "The Sundew," Swinburne explores themes of love, desire, and the complexities of human emotion. The title refers to the sundew plant, a carnivorous plant known for its glistening, sticky droplets that attract and trap insects.

As with much of Swinburne's poetry, "The Sundew" is characterized by its rich imagery, sensual language, and exploration of intense emotions. Swinburne's poetic style often incorporates elements of Romanticism and symbolism, and his works are known for their musicality and rhythmic complexity.
