Holy Sonnets QUOTES

1 " O! I shall soon despair, when I shall see
That Thou lovest mankind well, yet wilt not choose me,
And Satan hates me, yet is loth to lose me. "

― John Donne , Holy Sonnets

2 " Batter my heart, three-person'd God; for, you
As yet but knocke, breathe, shine, and seeke to mend;
That I may rise, and stand, o'erthrow mee, 'and bend
Your force, to breake, blowe, burn and make me new. "

― John Donne , Holy Sonnets

3 " Satan hates me, yet is loth to lose me. "
