During Donne's time a new theory on the universe was being taken more seriously (with the sun in the middle of the universe not the earth as was previously believed...check out Copernicus, he is the one who is credited with this idea). Donne as usual litters his poems with 'modern' jargon and l.30 shows Donne using the more established theory of a earth centred universe.
