A poem by this author describes the joy of discovering "my America, my new found land, my kingdom, safeliest when with one man manned." That poem tells its addressee to "unpin that spangled breast-plate" and "unlace yourself," before telling her to "license my roving hands, and let them go behind before, above, between, below." Another of his poems declares that "dull sublunary lovers' love  cannot admit of absence." That poem's speaker says "Thy firmness makes my circle just and makes me end where I begun" as part of a conceit comparing him and his lover to a pair of compasses. For 10 points, name this Metaphysical poet who wrote "To His Mistress Going to Bed" and "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning."
