'Batter my heart, three-personed God by John Donne\r'

'Analyzing the poem by pot Donne closely, we can see that he utilise a lot of figures of speech in order to call for what he feels. In the first line, when he said â€Å"three-personed God,” he was referring to the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit concept (Jokinen). He was asking the victor to punish him. The spring behind his request is that he is get bold, getting so full of himself, as reflected on the â€Å"that I may climb on and stand.” He asks that the Lord overthrow him, and and then uses descriptive words â€Å" breakage, blow burn, and chafe me new,” these word all metaphors of making pottery. In the first lines, thither is a lick relation of his aggressiveness, wherein he doesn’t charge even questioning God Himself. He then poses a simile, â€Å"I, like a usurped town to another due,” wherein he compares himself to an uprising, a rebellion. This is a battle of belief, of whether he dust faithful or not.He admits that he was arduous hard to believe in the Lord, however, he himself wasn’t able to defend with reason, because of his adynamic belief, for his reason dwells upon that weakness. He then counters this contention by saying that he affectionately loves the Lord, and he wishes to be loved back. further the problem would be his promise to the Lord’s enemy, which is the devil. These fork ups a simile of natural conflict, of violence which Donne wishes to convey to the readers.The closing statement on the other hand speaks of a grotesque imagery, a description of rape, which would convey the relationship with God, as seen by Donne. that this may be because he wants to show the power of God, that even though there are various factors that affects a accredited person, yet still, God remains tidy and can make or break you, depending on how you want it to be.
