who will believe me; if i swear

that i have had the plague a year?

who would not laugh at me; if i should say

i saw a flash of powder burn a day?

ah; what a trifle is a heart;

if once into loves hands it e !

all other griefs allow a part

to other griefs; and ask themselves but some ;

they e to us; but us love draws ;

he swallows us and never chaws ;

by him; as by chaind shot; whole ranks do die ;

he is the tyrant pike; our hearts the fry。

if twere not so; what did bee

of my heart when i first saw thee?

i brought a heart into the room;

but from the room i carried none with me。

if it had gone to thee; i know

mine would have taught thine heart to show

more pity unto me ; but love; alas !

at one first blow did shiver it as glass。

yet nothing can to nothing fall;

nor any place be empty quite ;

therefore i think my breast hath all

those pieces still; though they be not unite ;

and now; as broken glasses show

a hundred lesser faces; so

my rags of heart can like; wish; and adore;

but after one such love; can love no more。

the ecstacy。

where; like a pillow on a bed; 

a pregnant bank swelld up; to rest 

the violets reclining head; 

sat we two; one anothers best。 

our hands were firmly cemented 

by a fast balm; which thence did spring ; 

our eye…beams twisted; and did thread 

our eyes upon one double string。 

so to engraft our hands; as yet 

was all the means to make us one ; 

and pictures in our eyes to get 

was all our propagation。 

as; twixt two equal armies; fate 

suspends uncertain victory; 

our souls—which to advance their state; 

were gone out—hung twixt her and me。 

and whilst our souls negotiate there; 

we like sepulchral statues lay ; 

all day; the same our postures were; 

and we said nothing; all the day。

if any; so by love refined; 

that he souls language understood; 

and by good love were grown all mind; 

within convenient distance stood; 

he—though he knew not which soul spake; 

because both meant; both spake the same— 

might thence a new concoction take; 

and part far purer than he came。 

this ecstasy doth unperplex 

(we said) and tell us what we love ; 

we see by this; it was not sex ; 

we see; we saw not; what did move : 

but as all several souls contain 

mixture of things they know not what; 

love these mixd souls doth mix again; 

and makes both one; each this; and that。 

a single violet transplant; 

the strength; the colour; and the size— 

all which before was poor and scant— 

redoubles still; and multiplies。 

when love with one another so 

interanimates two souls; 

that abler soul; which thence doth flow; 

defects of loneliness controls。

we then; who are this new soul; know; 

of what we are posed; and made; 

for th atomies of which we grow 

are souls; whom no change can invade。 

but; o alas ! so long; so far; 

our bodies why do we forbear? 

they are ours; though not we ; we are 

th intelligences; they the spheres。 

we owe them thanks; because they thus 

did us; to us; at first convey; 

yielded their senses force to us; 

nor are dross to us; but allay。 

on man heavens influence works not so; 

but that it first imprints the air ; 

for soul into the soul may flow; 

though it to body first repair。 

as our blood labours to beget 

spirits; as like souls as it can ; 

because such fingers need to knit 

that subtle knot; which makes us man ; 

so must pure lovers souls descend 

to affections; and to faculties; 

which sense may reach and apprehend; 

else a great prince in prison lies。

to our bodies turn we then; that so 

weak men on love reveald may look ; 

loves mysteries in souls do grow; 

but yet the body is his book。 

and if some lover; such as we; 

have heard this dialogue of one; 

let him still mark us; he shall see 

small change when were to bodies gone。

loves deity。

i long to talk with some old lovers ghost;

who died before the god of love was born。

i cannot think that he; who then loved most;

sunk so low as to love one which did scorn。

but since this god produced a destiny;

and that vice…nature; custom; lets it be;

i must love her that loves not me。

sure; they which made him god; meant not so much;

nor he in his young godhead practised it。

but when an even flame two hearts did touch;

his office was indulgently to fit

actives to passives。 correspondency

only his subject was ; it cannot be

love; till i love her; who loves me。

but every modern god will now extend

his vast prerogative as far as jove。

to rage; to lust; to write to; to mend;

all is the purlieu of the god of love。

o ! were we wakend by this tyranny

to ungod this child again; it could not be

i should love her; who loves not me。

rebel and atheist too; why murmur i;

as though i felt the worst that love could do?

love might make me leave loving; or might try

a deeper plague; to make her love me too ;

which; since she loves before; im loth to see。

falsehood is worse than hate ; and that must be;

if she whom i love; should love me。

John Donne Selected Poems…8


loves diet。

to what a cumbersome unwieldiness 

and burdenous corpulence my love had grown;

but that i did; to make it less; 

and keep it in proportion; 

give it a diet; made it feed upon

that which love worst endures; discretion

above one sigh a day i allowd him not; 

of which my fortune; and my faults had part ; 

and if sometimes by stealth he got 

a she sigh from my mistress heart;

and thought to feast upon that; i let him see

twas neither very sound; nor meant to me。 

if he wrung from me a tear; i brined it so 

with scorn and shame; that him it nourishd not ;

if he suckd hers; i let him know 

twas not a tear which he had got ; 

his drink was counterfeit; as was his meat ;

for eyes; which roll towards all; weep not; but sweat。

whatever he would dictate i writ that;

but burnt her letters when she writ to me ;

and if that favour m
