Marvell's Might
Why do you think that I am so enigmatic?
Clearly my wit goes beyond censorship.
The Puritan cause? Ambivilance is my response.
Why would I gravel to a king when I have all these
Rosebuds to Gather?
Look into my Mower Poems:
I challenge you to worship, well, rather fear
and love time, and take nature to its fullest
and highest degree, whether relaxing in a
meadow or sporting with a woman: all is the
same, all lives, has its prime, and dies.
Carpe Diem!
Comments
marvell, my child, use the gift of speech well,
as you have before and will continue to,
not to woo the hearts of women
or challenge the wit of men
but to appreciate what the Lord, your God,
has created and given to thee.
use your gift of words wisely
and in heaven, thy soul i will see.

Marvall-
your poems are intriguing, nevertheless,
you make us think about such high and mighty things.
Embrace it all, for what you say is true-
we all will live, have our prime and die.
But don't place so much stress on death.
Take in everything you can, for life is much more sweet
than to ponder on thoughts of death.

Mr. Andrew Marvell,
It is natural for one to doubt their leaders in times
of uncertainty. Perhaps, the leader acts or behaves
in a way that causes suspicion. No matter how you
choose to exert your opinion, I do hope you consider
one thing. I, too, have encountered a situation where
much was suspected by me, however, nothing was
proved. Be patient and alert for yourself and your
family. Though none following my reign will love
the people more than I, they were appointed there
by royal blood. I leave you with this prayer: may God
guide you with his light and love forever.

Oh but death is merely a time in which we can be near the Lord. Who but those now on earth should cherish all of God's creation and worship the Mighty Lord God Jesu! Sport with women you say? Oh you hath fallen to sin! Why would thou wasteth thou time on trivial matters and OF SUCH GREAT SIN! The Lord Jesu is the way to reason and he should be the topic of your ART. For he hath died for all our sins and you must look to Him for all the pastoral writings you have done and the Death that you can write about. Oh, cherish and worship him holy for he is the One to show us these trinkets of Love!
