No man is an island,
Entire of itself;
Every ______ is a piece of the continent,
A part of ______ main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less,
As well as if a ______ were:
As well as if a manor of thy friend’s
Or of thine own were.
Any man’s death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never ______ to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls ______ thee.
