The Thinking Portion of your homework:
Reread: "To His Coy Mistress," by Andrew Marvell; this poem is in your textbook or you can read it online.
Here is a link:

Note Marvell's references to time: If we had all the time in the world, it would not matter if we waited....
Let us roll all our strength and all Our sweetness up into one ball, - This is an image we see again in "Love Song".
Eliot is certainly alluding to Marvell a couple of times in "Love Song." Can you see it? What might this mean for Prufrock?
The Written Portion of your homework: Complete the "'Prufrock' Analysis Worksheet". Take your time with this assignment. Show me that you have thought deeply about each question. Remember the key is tie the literary device to meaning. The guiding questions should help you.
