One of this man's works ends with Thy firmness makes my circle just, /
One of this man's works ends with Thy firmness makes my circle just, / And makes me end where I begun. Another one of his works asks a cruel and sudden creature hast thou since / Purpled thy nail in blood of innocence? and calls it both a marriage bed and a marriage temple, and in another he claims that the titular entity art slave to Fate, Chance, kings, and desperate men, and that it shalt die. A Valediction Forbidding Mourning and The Flea are by - for 10 points - what British metaphysical poet whose Holy Sonnets include the 10th one, Death be not proud?
One of this man's works ends with Thy firmness makes my circle just, /
John Donne
