Don't take this literally or you'll get a mighty headache. Read on at my blog to see what John Donne meant by this line based on the poem itself.

“From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,/ Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow, /And soonest our best men with thee do go, /Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.” (Donne 5-8)

"Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me"

"One short sleep past, we wake enternally" (Holy Sonnets, Line 13).

7And soonest our best men with thee do go,
8Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
9Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
10And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell;
11And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
12And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
(Donne)

Katie Vann said:

"Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men" (Donne)

From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with they do go,
Rest of their bones, and soul’s delivery.

"Death be not proud, though some have called thee mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so, for those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow"

"One short sleep past, we wake eternally,
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die."
("Death, be not proud," lines 13-4)
