Donne used the metaphysical conceit in the poem in Holy Sonnet XIV by having a strict form of the sonnet which helped the readers understands the themes implied by the poem. An iambic pentameter was also used in the poem.


I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!




Metaphysical conceit is a comparison of 2 things that are very different.   He compares violent actions like knockng , breaking, blowing and burning to the love of God.   He says even if God does those things, he wants to be imprisoned by him.  

No, sorry- those comparisons don't help me to understand any of it!
