Andrew Marvell - ”To His Coy Mistress” | POETRY FOR MEN

Andrew Marvell was an English Restoration poet who lived and wrote during his nation’s civil wars, and in its transition from monarchy to the beginnings of republicanism.

He was a well-traveled, well-spoken, hard-partying bachelor.

In his masterwork “To His Coy Mistress” he paints a vivid picture of a familiar and amorous scenario most men will be familiar with.

But he presents his own unique spin on it, in a moving and timeless encouragement to seize the day.
