In it, he found a trustworthy companion for living through a global pandemic - or any other crisis. As Yancey says, "Nothing had prepared me for John Donne's raw account of confrontations with God." Preacher and poet John Donne wrote Devotions in 1623, during a pandemic in his city of London. For a month he lay sick, hearing the church bell toll for others while wondering if his death would be next. From what he believed to be his death bed, the great poet wrote a triumph of literature that has given us such familiar phrases as "No man is an island..." and "Never send to know for whom the bell tolls..." This new version of a classic work is arranged as a 30-day reader based on Donne's meditations, with startling relevance as we face similar questions. 600 10 $a Donne, John, $d 1572-1631. 650 0 $a Devotional literature. 650 0 $a Prayers. 650 0 $a Meditation $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Sermons, English. 941 $a 1 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20231102012545.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8980E176794811EE8DD2691B42ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
