The Nymph's Reply To The Shepherd Comments

i love this poem. how hard men try! These material goods are not what she wants, and she is very clear in that fact. I feel it is rather flirty in places and i love the beginning 'and truth in every shepherd's tongue'. She loves what he has just said (Marlowe 'the passionate shepherd to his love') to her and is teasing him with the notion that these promises doesn't interest her at all. For a man to write this truthfully the thoughts of a woman is very impressive too.
