Bethberry-- Good call on Donne--yeah, yeah, yeah-- and to my list I'll add Milton on His Blindness. And George Herbert: The Pulley; and Love... "...Quick-Eye'd Love..."

And John of the Cross, "Dark Night of the Soul". Just the poem-- although the book is good, but the poem is where the eucatastrophe reaches deep. "....leaving my cares forgotten among the lilies."

This is cool, I'm going to build a reading list off of others' lists... thanks!
