Give examples of 2 specific words from the poem "no man is an island", by john donne, that are meant to be understood metaphorically. what is the figurative meaning?
"no man is an island"
no man is an island, entire of itself; every man
is a piece of the continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, europe is the lesse,
as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor
of thy friends or of thine own were; any man's death
diminishes me, because i am involved in mankind;
and therefore never send to know for whom the
bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
