THE FLEA BY JOHN DONNE
Marke but this flea , and marke in this , How little that
which thou deny’st me is :
• It suck’d me first , and now sucks thee,
• And in this flea , our two bloods mingled bee:
• Thou know’st that this can not be said
• A sinne , nor shame , nor losse of maidenbead,
• Yet this enjoys before it wooe,
• And pamper ‘d swells with one blood made of two,
• And this, alas , is more than wee would doe.
“He who makes a beats of himself
gets rid of the pain of being a man .”
- DR. JOHNSON
