Anything with Donne's poetry gets five stars from me, although I prefer other editions more than this one. As I said in another review:

Donne remains my favorite poet after all these years. This one volume collection has pretty much everything you would want including his great prose pieces where such quotations as "no man is an island" come from. (I'm sticking to modern spelling!) Some say Donne is too intellectual or scientific in his verse--too much clever logic--but I think real feeling comes through, not just cleverness. ( )
