#2 Question on counterpoints

Explanation:

Sir Walter Raleigh writes "The Nymph’s Reply to the Shepherd" as a response to Christopher Marlowe’s poem. Each stanza of Raleigh’s poem is a rejection or disqualification of the Shepard's promises in “The Passionate Shepard to His Love”, these are his counterpoints. He stresses two ideas, the first is that all things fade in time, including love, and the second is that there are consequences for every action. In his story, the Nymph is portrayed as skeptical and cold-hearted. She believes love is too good to be true, meanwhile, the Shepard has a warmer and loving side. One counterpoint Raleigh makes is that nature is not as beautiful as it is portrayed in other poems. In Marlow’s poem nature is described in awe and wonder, while in Raleigh's it is described in a realistic and unfanciful sense. Another counterpoint he makes has to do with love. He claims that love “fades as quickly as the flowers die”. The main point of his poem is to communicate the realistic and prudent side of life, he believes that love does not last and similarly, the beauty of nature is as temporary as love. eventually fades and dies.

Here is my answer to the first one. I'm a little new to figurative language so sorry if I use something that isn't actually figurative language. Its 150 words.

Figurative language is used almost all throughout the poem The Passionate Shepard to His Love and the reply to this poem The Nymph's Reply to the Shepard uses Figurative Language as well. However, they each use different types of figurative language. In the first poem  The Passionate Shepard to His love we see Figurative Language like Symbolism when he describes the roses as being love and desire and then he refers to the country as peace or in a way a never-ending hope. We can also see how in The Passionate Shepard to His Love uses Metaphor as well when he says that birds sing Madrigals this is comparing what birds sing to actual poems that are in music. However, in The Nymph's Reply to the Shepard, we can see that he uses a lot of imagery when he talks about the state of decay and how everything is going to die eventually.
