These three splendid texts on disease and death, in verse and sermon format reveal Donne’s skillful blend of the melancholy with pleasant humor, great imagination, contemplation and compassion. Praise to God and his quest for knowledge were unquenched. These 23 pieces in tripartite form of meditation, expostulation and prayer have startling phrases and juxtapositions. Although Donne declares Death every man’s enemy yet he assures that whoever abides in Christ shall never die! Death is the way to resurrection, and ascension into His mansions!
