the second stanza is giving me a little trouble. the first 4 lines im confused as to if Love caused the ruin or love remains in a ruin or if anything caused the ruin. I might be thinking a little to far into this. help? any thoughts?

jonson writes about some ways death can take us away, but states that love can be used after death and is therefore more powerful than death - changing what he stated earlier about death and love being the same
love can exist when there is no life, when death has taken that from someone or something. Jonson illustrates that love is an emotion that can remain steady even when there is no physical object to base that on. That is why love is more powerful
In the first stanza Jonson basically says that love and death can both cause pain, but in the second stanza he explains that love has power that death does not have. He also says that death pretends to conquer all, but in the end, it is really love that does.
This poem is comparing love and death saying that both can hurt you but that love surpasses death love beats death in the end because love goes on love is in the soul not the body the body will die but love goes on in the soul. Caitlin McCarty
