Poem by John Donne

Fall of a Wall

Under an undermined and shot-bruised wall
A too-bold captain perish'd by the fall,
Whose brave misfortune happiest men envied,
That had a town for tomb, his bones to hide. 

1. Holy Sonnet 17. Since She Whom I Loved
2. The Indifferent
3. Oh My Blacke Soule! Now Thou Art Summoned
4. La Corona
5. The Damp
