We learnt that in the second stanza of the poem the tone changes from being romantic to a less romantic and grim tone. The poet does this by describing her as his "vegetable love " which describes there slowly growing love to then quoting "then worms shall try that long preserved virginity" which shows all he's interested in is sex and if she doesn't honour him the worms shall take her virginity.
Mr Sharpe also gave us texual analysis homework on the poem The flea which has to be in for Monday the 5th of October.
