Now, solve this instance: This man compared using poetry to eliminate the pain of his unrequited love to rivers that "purge sea waters' fretful salt away" in a poem that ends "a little wise, the best fools be." Another of his poems urges "love me that I may die the gentler way, hate me because they love's too great for me." This author of "The Triple Fool" and "The Prohibition" wrote to the Countess of Bedford about "the spider love, which transubstantiates all, and can convert Manna to gall" in "Twickham Garden." He suggested "ride ten thousand days and nights, til age snow white hairs on thee" in a poem listing impossible tasks such as "tell me where all past years are, or who cleft the devil's foot" that begins "go and catch a falling star." Another of his poems ends "except you enthrall me, never shall be free, nor ever chaste, except you ravish me" and asks "batter my heart, three-personed God." For 10 points, name this author of "A Valediction: Forbidding Mourning" and the Holy Sonnets, a Metaphysical poet.
