Comparison essay "The Wooing rogue" - "The Passionate Sh


            Comparison essay between "The wooing rogue" and .
             "The passionate Shepard to his love" .
             The two poems I will be comparing in this essay will be "The wooing rogue" and "The passionate Shepard to his love". Both of these poems were written in the 17th century. "The wooing rogue" was made sixty years after "The passionate Shepard to his love" and was made as a response to it. "The passionate Shepard to his love" ("Tps" for short) was written by Christopher Marlowe and "The wooing rogue" was written anonymously. "The wooing rogue" is about a man and woman living rough with the woman selling herself in prostitution and the man thieving for money. "Tps" is totally different to "The wooing rogue". "Tps" is about a rich Farmer who lives in the countryside and is trying to win over a woman with presents and money.
             In "The wooing rogue" the person who is written about is a lot poorer than the man in "Tps". You can see this by the writer of "The wooing rogue" saying "we will beg from door to door" and you can see that the man in "Tps" is a lot richer by him saying he will give the woman loads of luxuries. In "The wooing rogue" it seems that the man doesn't want the woman as much as the man in "Tps", it looks as if the man in "The wooing rogue" is just using the woman in prostitution to get money for himself although he does promise things to her.
             The two environments of the poems are set in totally different places. To me it seems that "The wooing rogue" is set in the city. I can see "The wooing rouge" set in a place set like the surroundings of where the Artful Dodgers base is in "Oliver Twist". "Tps" is set in the countryside, "that hills and valleys, dales and fields". You also know that it's set in the countryside as you don't see many Shepard's with farms in the city. I think "The wooing rogue" relates to a place in the future where aliens have taken over the world and people are either rich or poor/slaves.
