My first impression was of a man deeply in love with a woman. Throughout this poem the man expresses his feeling, explains how in love he is with this woman. The author told of what the couple would do to pass their time together. The man seems to have a fondness of this woman that he cannot quite figure out. He seems to be in awe of her and somewhat lost as to why he is so in love with her. The man explains how he will love and adore her “An hundred years should go to praise/Thine eyes and on thy forehead gaze, / Two hundred to adore each breast;/But thirty thousand to the rest:”(Marvell, 549).
