=Time Flying Along=



This poem is a rebuttal to Andrew Marvel's poem "To His Coy Mistress." In marvel's poem, he emphasizes that if women do not loose their virginity's quickly, then they never will because they will age and no one will want to be with them. Montagu states her awareness of her aging and later shows the absurdity of Marvel's arguments.
