    There are many distance learners like me who cannot afford quality education. You are giving them wings like Daedalus did to Icarus. Now they can pursue their dreams. People like you are uplifting education standards in India. God bless you! God bless the internet!

    BY JOHN DONNE
    For God's sake hold your tongue, and let me love,
    Or chide my palsy, or my gout,
    My five gray hairs, or ruined fortune flout,
    With wealth your state, your mind with arts improve,
    Take you a course, get you a place,
    Observe his honor, or his grace,
    Or the king's real, or his stampèd face
    Contemplate; what you will, approve,
    So you will let me love.
    Alas, alas, who's injured by my love?
    What merchant's ships have my sighs drowned?
    Who says my tears have overflowed his ground?
    When did my colds a forward spring remove?
    When did the heats which my veins fill
    Add one more to the plaguy bill?
    Soldiers find wars, and lawyers find out still
    Litigious men, which quarrels move,
    Though she and I do love.
    Call us what you will, we are made such by love;
    Call her one, me another fly,
    We're tapers too, and at our own cost die,
    And we in us find the eagle and the dove.
    The phœnix riddle hath more wit
    By us; we two being one, are it.
    So, to one neutral thing both sexes fit.
    We die and rise the same, and prove
    Mysterious by this love.
    We can die by it, if not live by love,
    And if unfit for tombs and hearse
    Our legend be, it will be fit for verse;
    And if no piece of chronicle we prove,
    We'll build in sonnets pretty rooms;
    As well a well-wrought urn becomes
    The greatest ashes, as half-acre tombs,
    And by these hymns, all shall approve
    Us canonized for Love.
    And thus invoke us: "You, whom reverend love
    Made one another's hermitage;
    You, to whom love was peace, that now is rage;
    Who did the whole world's soul contract, and drove
    Into the glasses of your eyes
    (So made such mirrors, and such spies,
    That they did all to you epitomize)
    Countries, towns, courts: beg from above
    A pattern of your love!"
