These lines are from John Donne’s poem ‘The Good-Morrow’. It was published in Donne’s 1633 collection Sonnets and Songs is  written from the viewpoint of an awakening lover and elucidates  the lover’s thoughts as he wakes up next to his partner

Explanation:

  • The Good-Morrow is one of the metaphysical love poems of Donne, namely a morning aubad, poem or song about love. He has written a large number of secular poems which he strongly contrasts with his later sacred works
  • In the morning, the two lovers wake up first. The speaker wishes to examine their relationship and therefore asks further questions, reflecting on this time before their love, pleasure and beauty and making reference to historic events.
  • This inspires further explanation in the next two stanzas.The poem:  It has a reference to a Catholic legend. It implies that the two partaking love is like a new religion (allusion to the Seven Sleepers, persecuted Christian youth sealed up in a cave, waking in order to spread Christianity after almost two hundred years). .
