He entered a diplomatic career and served as private secretary to Sir Thomas Egerton. However, when he eloped with Egerton's underage niece, Anne More, in 1601, the couple was disinherited and they lived in poverty for many years. He died in 1631 after posing for a portrait in his funeral shroud. From love songs to religious hymns, from heartfelt elegies to holy sonnets, this collection of Donne's works runs the gamut of the poet's brilliance, and includes some of his best-loved poems in their entirety as well as unabridged extracts.
