答案是:Cavalier poets were often courtiers who stood on the side of the king, and called themselves “sons” of Ben Jonson.

They mostly dealt in short songs on the flitting joys of the day, but underneath their light-heartedness lays some foreboding of impending doom. This spirit of pessimism and cynicism is typical of the aristocratic class in decline.
