Career
In 1567, and resigned his fellowship in 1567. Describing himself as "an Englishe man borne, one of the quenes majesties suppliauntes, and enfourmed in my countrie fashions", Hartwell accused the exiled Shacklock of "grosse ignorance of our English customes". Four Latin lines by Thomas Newton in his Illustrium aliquot Anglorum Encomia (1589), addressed to Abraham Hartwell the younger, speak of the elder as a distinguished poet lately dead.
