The authors of the three poems that we are working on are “The Passionate Shepherd to his love” by Marlowe, is about he is trying to get his love to come live with him and be his love. “ The nymph’s reply Shepherd” by Raleigh, is telling about how he is trying so hard, but she will not give him any chance, because he will be wasting both of their times and everything he gives her will all die and fade away. “Raleigh was Right” by William Carlos Williams, is about saying all the things the nymph was saying was true and that nothing will work. Williams transforms Marlowe and Raleigh’s central ideas by focusing on nature, love, and time. Marlowe thinks that giving her all these gifts will mover her over and make her come and live with him
