John Donne - TempleJohn Donne - Temple
Work rating: Low


With His kind mother, who partakes thy woe, Joseph, turn back ; see where your child doth sit,  Blowing, yea blowing out those sparks of wit,  Which Himself on the doctors did bestow.  The Word but lately could not speak, and lo !  It suddenly speaks wonders ; whence comes it,  That all which was, and all which should be writ,  A shallow seeming child should deeply know ?  His Godhead was not soul to His manhood,  Nor had time mellow`d Him to this ripeness ;  But as for one which hath a long task, `tis good,  With the sun to begin His business,  He in His age`s morning thus began,  By miracles exceeding power of man.
