This is a quote from Batman. "Holy Sonnet 14, Batman" said Robin.

It's also a poem written by John Donne around 1633.

"Batter my heart, three-personed God; for You

As yet but knock, breathe, shine, and seek to mend;

That I may rise, and stand, o'erthrow me, and bend

Your force to break, blow, burn, and make me new.

I, like an unsurped town, to another due,

Labor to admit You, but O, to no end;

Reason, Your viceroy in me, me should defend,

But is captived, and proves weak or untrue.

Yet dearly I love You, and would be loved fain,

But am betrothed unto Your enemy.

Divorce me, untie or break that knot again;

Take me to You, imprison me, for I,

Except You enthrall me, never shall be free,

Nor ever chaste, except You ravish me."

"Holy Sonnet 14" is a poem written by John Donne that explores the concept of death and the afterlife. The speaker challenges death, personifying it as a physical entity that has no true power over the soul. Through powerful imagery and metaphors, the poem argues that death is ultimately conquered by faith and the promise of eternal life.
