, Love’s Farewell
Idea 61 Michael Drayton (1563 – 1631)


Since there’s no help, come let us kiss and part, -
Nay I have done, you get no more of me;
Anaphora (repetition of words at the
beginning of successive clauses) -
And I am glad, yea, glad with all my heart, reminds audience that he is
heartbroken
That thus so cleanly I myself can free;

Like a religious promise
Lack of intimacy. Absolute (very important/ weighty)
Shake hands for ever, cancel all our vows, 5
And when we meet at any time again, Absolute. Final

Be it not seen in either of our brows
Poet is trying to convince himself
That we one jot of former love retain. that she once loved him

Volta - significant change of idea
long vowel sounds = Slow down pace Love = male (eg : his) relates himself to love
Now at the last gasp of love’s latest breath,
Elements of love




When, his pulse failing, passion speechless lies, 10
When faith is kneeling by his bed of death,
And innocence is closing up his eyes, Love is dying (on its death bed)
With his love dying (given all his passion in hope Tone : Complex and uncertain
for it to be countered - rejected) = lost innocence
(something that he hoped for is gone -- naivety)
-- Rhyming couplet =
- Now if thou would’st, when all have given him over,
Level of urgency Iambic pentameter (purpose: for rhythm of line) Shakespearean sonnet
From death to life thou might’st him yet recover!
Desperate/ passion
Intimacy of Tone (eg: 'thou' )
Clear indication that the poet hopes that their relationship could be (contrast to first stanza - use of
saved. The poet wants to continue the relationship but his love interest 'you')
seems to have a different idea

, 8 beats - tentameter
6 beats - trimeter
4 quartets (octet, 8 lines in stanza)
Booklet of poems from the Clusters anthology for Form V 2021 Structure enhances context (controlled like prison )
ABAB rhythm scheme - structured, repetitive
(controlled) - effect: creates singsong quality
(although context quite serious )
