Holy Sonnets
IX. The Apostles

by John Donne

And thy illustrious Zodiacke 
Of twelve Apostles, which ingirt this All, 
(From whom whosoever do not take 
Their light, to darke deep pits, throw downe, and fall,) 
As through their prayers, thou' hast let mee know 
That their bookes are divine; 
May they pray still, and be heard, that I goe 
Th' old broad way in applying; O decline 
Mee, when my comment would make thy word mine.
