To Coy His Mistress By Andrew Marvel

As humans we act upon our desires, and hesitate no longer and just seize the moment before time, and ultimately life, expires. In To Coy His Mistress, Andrew Marvell’s argues that, in a world where death rules supreme and time is limited, life’s true meaning and purpose can only be found in physical pleasure.
Instead of saying that death is coming to an end, Marvell substitutes lifes fear of time flying by (winged chariot). “Time's wingèd chariot hurrying near” (line 22). The speaker becomes more disappointed with the mistress since quite a while ago secured virginity and tires to tell her that death is close regardless they have not had intercourse. His discomfort can be found in his sexual desire, which shows the readers an interesting image which emblematically symbolically refers to female genitalia. The extreme symbolism of genitalia is again reacted when Marvell states the timid mistress, that even after death beauty would die and no one would have an interest in her. Here this shows his strengthening in sexual wants. Marvell abstractly states that holding onto her virginity would do her no good because she will be wasting time and beauty ages.
By revealing the Old Testament picture of the endless growth that cleansed the earth as a begin, Marvell's speaker tries to demonstrate the tremendousness of anticipated human presence. This symbolism is intriguing in two regards; right off the bat it acts to propose to the mistress and her secureness, and hat physical human life has been finished by God and will be finished by God once more (time). The image is interesting as it may be Marvell's way of condemning the speaker's attitude, suggesting that the speaker may be punished for sinfulness based off of desires and
