John Donne's poem "The Sun Rising,"  is a prime example of metaphysical love poetry. In the poem, Donne repeatedly relates the sun to the sensation of love and unity with another person, particularly in a sexual sense, leading the narrator to establish himself as living a microcosmic existence. Donne makes the sexual nature of his poem apparent from its opening lines. "Busy old fool, unruly Sun, / Why dost thou thus, / Through windows, and through curtains, call on us?  1 the narrator says, implying that the sun is representative of an unexpected burst of passion between the narrator and his lover. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, "busy  means "said of things; of passions, etc.  2 If "busy  is taken as representing passion and sexuality, Donne says that it is actually passion, not a literal sun, "calling  through the windows in the morning. In his book Donne's Poetry, Clay Hunt says that "The Sun Rising  begins "with explosive brusqueness, as the lover tells an intruder on his love to get away and leave him alone  which then leads to the lover demonstrating "an expression of sustained romantic passion.  3 Donne's own words reflect this statement. In the poem, the narrator follows his demand for privacy with the line "Must to thy motions lovers' season run?  4 Here he asks if love has to follow the schedule determined by the "sun,  a schedule that he has no interest in adhering to. The remainder of the opening stanza reinforces the narrator's desire for privacy from the workings of the world, explaining his reasoning for wanting solitude. "Saucy pedantic wretch, go chide / Late school-boys and sour prentices  5 says Donne, telling the sun to go "bother  the young, represented here as "school-boys  and "sour prentices.  According to the OED, a "prentice  implies "inexperience as of a novice or a beginner.  6 Under this reading it becomes clear that Donne is bidding the sun to take its teachings and focus them on those lacking experience in the art of love. Donne calls the sun "saucy,  a word which can be taken to mean "insolent towards superiors; presumptuous.  7 This reinforces the argume
