The Ecstacy

The Ecstacy by John Donne  is a Poem about divine and spiritual experience in love .the pair of lover and his beloved which we  find in the poem has reached such a hight  of love that both experience ecstacy of love . the poem is considered by the lover who describes in detail the  experience of ecstacy in love.

          Both the lover and his beloved set for the whole day on the banks of a river in the same manner as  a bed is always a company of pillow.

“WHERE, like a pillow on a bed,

A Pregnant bank swelled up to rest”

Their Ecstacy makes them aware of the truth that body is theirs but they  are not body. It is here that the meeting points takes place between ‘The Geeta’ and spiritual Love of the lovers.  The lover considers such divine experience as a faver of heaven to him.  It is this experience of Ecstacy which lover accepts as the bliss of God almighty. In this poem Donne show the spirituality of lovers  against the death.
