Fisher was made poet-laureate in 1650, or, in his own words, after the Restoration, "Scribbler to Oliver Cromwell. He wrote not only Latin panegyrics and congratulatory odes on the Protector, dedicating his works, as in this case, to Bradshaw, and the most important of the parliamentary magnates, but also composed a constant succession of elegies and epitaphs on the deaths of their generals. Thus the above work concludes with odes on the funerals of Ludlow and Popham.
