Love in Andrew Marvell in To His Coy Mistress and John Donnes The Sunn

Love in Andrew Marvell in To His Coy Mistress and John Donnes The Sunne move up These ii poems, To His Coy Mistress and The Sunne boost be similar poems, they are two metaphysical (metaphysical means more than physical) poems written around Shakespeares succession. The main(prenominal) theme of these poems is the same it is romance and the sleep with of a woman. Yet the two poets have very different opinions on these two things. Within both poems are arguments, in To His Coy Mistress it is with the woman and in The Sunne hike it is with the solarize. The Sunne Rising is about a mans argument with the sun over how meaning(a) it is compared to his woman. To his Coy Mistress is about a man trying to grade the woman. The main theme of the two poems is love. There are other themes in the poems which are linked to love, in To his Coy Mistress the theme time and how it is passing by is introduced The three stanzas develop the theme, in the first stanz a the bank clerk in the poem talks about how they could be together forever, bank the conversion of the Jews this is saying how they have all the time in the founding so they can don it slow, in the second stanza time speeds up, The graves a fine and private place, But none, I think do at that place embrace. This means that he will not be able to love her when she is dead and alone. In the third stanza the man is saying they cant stop time, they should take things fast and make time try and keep up with them. The Sunne Rising has a very different theme, it is the sun and the world, instead of the argument cosmos with the woman about them being together, in The Sunne Rising it is about how the sun think... ...entre is, these walls, thy sphere. This is saying that if you shine here sun you are shining on my whole world, this room is my world and my woman is the centre of it. This shows how Donne uses imaging to instance the mans love for the woman an d how he feels about her. This shows how both writers feel that imagery is a good way to get feelings across within a progressing argument. These two poems have similarities in structure, poetic voice, use of imagery, tone and in the use of themes. Yet both poems also have difference in these same areas. In The Sunne Rising he already has his woman and in To his Coy Mistress he is trying to seduce the woman. I commit The Sunne Rising by John Donne was the more successful poem because I thought the author got the mans feelings for the woman across to the reader better.
