To+His+Coy+Mistress

__The Life and Times __
====Andrew Marvell was born in Yorkshire, England, in the merry year of 1621. He attended Trinity College in Cambridge, stopped his studies when his father drowned, was elected to Parliament, made satirical fun of his political fellows, and died suddenly of a fever in 1678. Local gossip said that he had been poisoned by Jesuits, one of his favorite targets to lampoon, and this has not been confirmed or denied. His writing is characteristic of the English metaphysical genre. ====
