To The Virgins Analysis
If you want to read about love and lust towards a group of young girls, or a single girl in particular, then read To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time or To Coy His Mistress.

I feel like he is a older man, he is intelligent, and I would guess that his emotional state would be that he is jealous. In the poem To His Coy Mistress i think the author is a reasonable man, he is middle aged, and his emotional state is based around love and desire of wanting a beautiful
