"Eliot borrows the same technique" (Blythe and Sweet).

I wonder, did Eliot intentionally borrow the same technique?  Or did he simply write and he happened to use the same techniques as Donne.  I know that many times authors unintentionally reuse ideas.  Maybe Eliot never read Donne's work.  Maybe he has, and purposefully reused technique.  Perhaps he read the poem, internalized the technique and was influenced to use it in his poem without realizing.
