Selected Poems Synopsis

Considered by many critics the foremost English "e;metaphysical"e; poet, John Donne (1572–1631) earned renown for both sacred and secular verse, his love poems in the latter genre ranking among his most original and popular works. Brilliant and wide-ranging, Donne's verse is distinguished by its passion, insight, and inspired use of striking metaphors or "e;conceits."e; This volume contains a rich selection of the poet's best work, including, from the Songs and Sonnets: "e;The Good Morrow,"e; "e;The Canonization,"e; "e;The Relic,"e; and "e;A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning"e;; from the Elegies:

  • "e
  • On His Mistress"e
  • and "e
  • To His Mistress Going to Bed"e
  • a selection from the Holy Sonnets (including "e
  • Death Be Not Proud"e
  • )
  • "e
  • Good Friday. 1613. Riding Westward,"e
  • "e
  • Hymn to God My God, in My Sickness"e
  • and many more
