write a short essay, 2-3 pages
Time’s wingèd chariot. Andrew Marvell’s poem “To His Coy Mistress” is structured like a three-part argument in verse. In the first stanza, the speaker posits a better world, in which space and time are boundless; in the second, he regrets that our world is more limited; in the third, he urges his addressee to take advantage of youth and passion while they last. Write an essay tracing the speaker’s argument stanza by stanza and discussing the poem’s possible themes.
