John Donne - This is My Play's Last Scene

Hi everyone,


Ahh, 16th century poetry.  Much more familiar territory for me.

There are links off to the side for different types of sonnets, if you need a refresher.

The poem itself is one of 19 found in a collection called The Holy Sonnets.  Check out the 'Themes' section in that link.  Pretty hefty paragraph, but lots to look at in terms of Donne's commonly explored themes.

Enjoy.
