Poem 10

I read "Death, be not proud (Holy Sonnet 10)" by John Donne.

This was a poem about death, but a different view on it, with consideration of Christian afterlife views. I have to say that I have never thought about death the way he did. He showed that death is truly only instantaneous if a person is passed to afterlife and lives there again. It was an interesting view that I enjoyed, but what irritated me again was the old english that it was written in.
