Donne

Famous quotes containing the word donne:

    No spring, nor summer beauty hath such grace,
    As I have seen in one autumnal face.
    —John Donne (c. 1572–1631)

    At the round earth’s imagined corners, blow
    Your trumpets, angels, and arise, arise
    From death, you numberless infinities
    Of souls, and to your scattered bodies go,
    —John Donne (1572–1631)

    But our old subtle foe so tempteth me
    That not one hour I can myself sustain.
    Thy grace may wing me to prevent his art,
    And thou like adamant draw mine iron heart.
    —John Donne (1572–1631)
