Question

how does Donne belittle death in death be not proud​

Answer 1

The speaker's tone is almost belittling; his purpose is to cut arrogant death down to size. Donne almost seems to poke fun at death's inflated sense of itself, telling it that, in reality, it is a "slave to Fate, Chance, kings, and desperate men."
