The misfortune of a poet always led to the splendour of his poetry. John Donne was one of these cases. Throughout of his life, Donne was largely suppressed because of his Catholic faith. He was accomplished but could not be granted the academic degree or a secular position in the society. Although his marriage was an enjoyable, the guilt of betraying his original religion had left a life-long mark on his heart. Donne not only used poetry as the media to let off the innermost feel- ings, but also expressed his desire of approaches to love in diverse moods. As the life experiences have either visible or invisible embodiments in his poems, one can get a glimpse of these changes in his spiritual and inner world by studying his poems produced during different periods. It was divided into three stages, each of which bearing its characteristics and historical mark as well as the incomparable charm and unique expression with the rich content.
