Don't miss the response “His Coy Mistress To Mr. Marvell” (by A. D. Hope): https://allpoetry.com/His-Coy-Mistress-To-Mr.-Marvell
Since you have world enough and time
Sir, to admonish me in rhyme,
Pray Mr Marvell, can it be
You think to have persuaded me?
[…]
But-- well I ask: to draw attention
To worms in-- what I blush to mention,
And prate of dust upon it too!
Sir, was this any way to woo?
