Ratings and reviews

Delphi collections are routinely superior to most public domain volumes, and this one is no different from the main. All the poetry, indented, spaced, and lineated as they should be -- not always the case with e-books, sadly -- plus letters, sermons, essays, notes to poems and prose, and three biographies. Perfect.

This Delphi collection of Donne is brilliant. Easy five stars.
