“死神，别骄傲，虽有人把你称作”Death, Be Not Proud, Though Some Have Called Thee（ 敬神十四行诗　第十首）(Holy Sonnet 10)多　恩John Donne死神，别骄傲，虽有人把你称作Death, be not proud, though some have called thee可怕的巨灵，其实你并非如此，Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;那些你以为击倒的人们，并没有死，For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow可怜的死神，你也不可能杀死我。

Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.

说休息和睡眠是你的写照，那么，From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,你一定会给人付出更多的欣喜，Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,所以精英们急急忙忙跟你去，And soonest our best men with thee do go,让尸骨安息，让灵魂得到解脱。

Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery .

你是命运、帝王、强徒的奴仆，Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,你又跟鸩毒、战争、疫病为伍，And dost with poison , war, and sickness dwell,可鸦片、巫术也能使我们睡眠，And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well还睡得更好，你何必如此傲慢？

And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?

我们匆匆睡一觉，但醒于永恒，One short sleep past, we wake eternally不再有死亡，死的该是你，死神！

And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.
