Can someone help me with this poem? - wreath art
It is run by Andrew Marvell. I have to do a line-by-line transliteration and fully understand what this man says. I tried four times, but my teacher told me I'm wrong. It gives me another chance, if not failure. This is an important test for the quality. Here's the poem:
The Fair Singer
To a final conquest of all me
Love so sweet an enemy, wrote
While the agreement of the beauties of my death,
Blend in fatal harmony;
That when the eyes of my heart is united
She and her voice might captivate my opinion too.
He was a job fair, but are separated fled:
My soul could be separated to save himself,
Breaking the shackles of their curly hair.
But how can I prevent a slave;
Its subtle, invisible crown can
My channels air to breathe?

FAIR SINGER
by: Andrew Marvell (1621-1678)
Or make a final conquest of all me
Love so sweet an enemy, wrote
While the agreement of the beauties of my death,
Blend in fatal harmony;
That when the eyes of my heart is united
She and her voice might captivate my opinion too.
Flies were on an individual basis, but fair
My soul could be separated to save himself,
Breaking the shackles of their curly hair.
But how can I prevent a slave;
Its subtle, invisible crown can
My channels the same air we breathe?
It was just in the fight against some friction,
Where victory might hang in equal choice,
But all resistance against them is useless
Who th'advantage eyes and voice,
And all my strength to be canceled
She had won both the wind and sun.
Poem Ju and uses the common theme of love as a "conquest" - ie, what the poet is in love with him, he has won. How ItCompare this performance to kill him - this is interesting because the people in this period after orgasm as "the little death" and death was a euphemism for love.
Reaching the "weapons", the conquest - Working Together or harmonization - to the eyes of women who rely on his emotions, his voice and words in your mind.
He said that might have been able to resist a woman with a single attraction - but these two can not be beaten are. If a woman had beautiful hair, which might escape. The image is caught by the hair - but (because of the beautiful female voices, and I believe is the theme of his speech - which, I think to say that he) has both beauty and brains are capable of doing much more efficient flight connections with the more subtle - the air through which it moves, her voice and breath, his voice is.
He will say that a physical fight would be easier, and would not have had the same opportunities - but in the struggle against both her beauty (the GIVIs "sun" - that have the vision) and voice (the wind) is helpless. I think half of the Jacobins believed that light rays from the eye, and also that we see, you can - may want to look it up - if so, when compared with eyes from the sun.
The joy to love and love poetry praising the poet uses hyperbole task, and highlight the sense of powerlessness - which is against the elements, and completely helpless. This extends the metaphor of love as a fun battle and conquest, where the beauty of the woman and the body and soul information capture - or the hearts and minds.
The poem is basically saying that the writer is beautiful in a woman come to a halt, but dangerous siren. This could involve the use of something dangerous, like an addiction, drugs or alcohol. Line by line:
1) To kill me once and for all
2) Love creates something attractive, my enemy
3 a.m. to 4 p.m.) All things are mortal pulls me in this matter
5 a.m. to 6 p.m.) She closes her physical beauty and her sweet voice calling me and makes me blind to all
7), was from his
8 a.m. to 9 p.m.), which my soul from which she had saved by their failure
10) How can I prevent that from him seduced?
11 a.m. to 12 p.m.), they are caught in a subtle way, and I know it is difficult to avoid too.
The poet's life is an indication in the poem, Marvell is struggling with his homosexuality in an era that was strictly prohibited and punishable by law.
Hope this helps.
