The Renaissance began a period of renewed interest
and engagement with “classical” (Ancient Greece
and Rome) learning, culture, literature, art, style, etc.
Build Background

Renaissance Poetry The Renaissance was a time in

which knowledge and skills were cultivated in a broad
range of fields, from music, art, and literature to
science and athletics. According to writers of the time,
the ideal "Renaissance man" should develop himself in
every possible way.
Included in the ranks of the true Renaissance men were
two kindred spirits, Christopher Marlowe and Sir
Walter Raleigh. During his short life, Marlowe studied
religion, became a talented and recognized poet and
playwright, conducted secret government business, and
engaged in philosophical discussions with his friend
Raleigh. As a statesman, writer, soldier, scientist,
adventurer, and explorer, Raleigh lived a life of action as
well as contemplation.
Marlowe's poem "The Passionate Shepherd to His
Love" became so famous that other poets wrote
responses to it. The most notable of these is "The
Nymph's Reply to the Shepherd," written by
Raleigh. Together, the two poems enact a debate
about the realities of love.
LITERARY ANALYSIS: PASTORAL
Pastoral is a conventional form of lyric poetry that presents an
idealized picture of nature and rural life. Notice the images from a
country setting in the following lines:
And we will sit upon the rocks,
Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks.

As you read these poems, notice the examples of pastoral life

involving shepherds and their rural existence.
Literary device: ALLITERATION

is the repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning

of words. Alliteration can create mood and reinforce
meaning.

 The Passionate Shepherd to His Love
Christopher Marlowe - 1564-1593

Come live with me and be my love, A gown made of the finest wool
And we will all the pleasures prove Which from our pretty lambs we pull;
That valleys, groves, hills, and fields, Fair lined slippers for the cold,
Woods, or steepy mountain yields. With buckles of the purest gold;

And we will sit upon the rocks, A belt of straw and ivy buds,
Seeing the shepherds feed their flocks, With coral clasps and amber studs:
By shallow rivers to whose falls And if these pleasures may thee move,
Melodious birds sing madrigals. Come live with me, and be my love.

And I will make thee beds of roses The shepherds' swains shall dance and sing
And a thousand fragrant posies, For thy delight each May morning:
A cap of flowers, and a kirtle If these delights thy mind may move,
Embroidered all with leaves of myrtle; Then live with me and be my love.
Sir Walter Raleigh
The Nymph Reply to the Shepherd
If all the world and love were young,
And truth in every Shepherd’s tongue,
These pretty pleasures might me move,
To live with thee, and be thy love.
Time drives the flocks from field to fold,
When Rivers rage and Rocks grow cold,
And Philomel becometh dumb,
The rest complains of cares to come.
The flowers do fade, and wanton fields,
To wayward winter reckoning yields,
A honey tongue, a heart of gall,
Is fancy’s spring, but sorrow’s fall.
Thy gowns, thy shoes, thy beds of Roses,
Thy cap, thy kirtle, and thy posies
Soon break, soon wither, soon forgotten:
In folly ripe, in reason rotten.
Thy belt of straw and Ivy buds,
The Coral clasps and amber studs,
All these in me no means can move
To come to thee and be thy love.
But could youth last, and love still breed,
Had joys no date, nor age no need,
Then these delights my mind might move
To live with thee, and be thy love.
