Sonnet 14

I think a lot of people can relate with this sonnet because Donne is basically saying that he has so many regrets that he is pleading with God to make him new. I get the feeling Donne feels that he can't take back some of the horrible things he has done.

To say he has sided with the enemy is to admit that you have messed up throughout life, and you just kneel before God and ask Him to break you away from the enemy and take me in, until I am once again sober.
