Selected Poems by John Donne
Considered by many critics the foremost English metaphysical 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 conceits. This volume contains a rich selection of the poet's best work, including, from the Songs and Sonnets The Good Morrow, The Canonization, The Relic, and A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning; from the Elegies On His Mistress and To His Mistress Going to Bed; a selection from the Holy Sonnets (including Death Be Not Proud); Good Friday. 1613. Riding Westward, Hymn to God My God, in My Sickness and many more.
