This document contains an analysis of the poem "The Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd" by Sir Walter Raleigh. It discusses how the poem is a parody of Christopher Marlowe's poem "The Passionate Shepherd to His Love" by mirroring its form and themes but providing a more cynical perspective on love and the inevitability of time. Key details analyzed include the contrast between the innocent and experienced perspectives in the two poems and how Raleigh pokes fun at Marlowe through subtle lexical and artistic choices.
