Аннотация к работе
The use of the phrase “more sweet than spice” is very touching, in my opinion, because it shows the Taylors as a normal, loving couple that time after time had some “spicy” moments in their live (356). Nevertheless, they love each other and the poet describes their marriage as a “Wedden’s knot, that ne’re can be untied: no Alexander’s Sword can it divide (356).” Comparing the marriage with a “Gordian Knot,” Taylor shows the strength of the union between his wife and himself (356). And later, “my [Taylor’s] branch again did knot, brought out another flower” this time the writer speaks about his daughter (357). This is how Taylor describes the death of his child: “at that unlooked for […] darksome hour […] a glorious hand […] did crop this flower” (357). Does it not sound like Taylor is proud and happy that God took his children, and not somebody else’s?
