John Bennet (born around 1575, died after 1614) was a composer of the English madrigal school. His madrigals include All creatures now as well as Weep, O Mine Eyes. The latter is a homage to John Dowland, using part of Dowland's most famous piece, Flow my Tears, also known in its pavane form as Lachrymae Antiquae. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/John+Bennett">Read more on Last.fm</a>
