About John Donne Online
This web site was created by Sara Triggs.
The sole purpose of this site is to honor the
great poet John Donne. As a young person
I was offended by one of his poems - Go and Catch a falling
Star. Years later I happened to come across a book of his poems
and fell in love with John Donne and his poetry.
Now there's a guy, and a guy who knows what love is.
To make up for the bad thoughts I'd had about him,
I created this site. No one ever asked me to do this work, I
entered all the text myself and was never paid for any of it.
The equipment I used to create the site, an old used Macintosh,
was owned and paid for by me.
Surprisingly, this site has attracted a small following
of other Donne lovers. It has always been and always will be
free to all living souls with access to the internet.
I only hope his poetry will touch your heart.
"Lawyers finde out still
Litigious men, which quarrels move,
Though she and I do love.
Call us what you will, wee are made such by love."
