The Broken Heart

(7) Snow Line

John Donne lived and wrote nearly 400 years ago so, yeah, there are going to be some rough patches on this hike, Shmoopers. That's why you have us, though, to point out all the "hath"s and "thee"s which might otherwise trip you up. Once you navigate those pitfalls, you'll realize that what's left is a pretty straightforward poem about how one man's love life has essentially ruined his existence. It may not be a fun stroll to take, but it's one that we think you can manage.
