.... her to become accessible to him. In real time, Marvell gives examples of her aging and how she will go to the grave with her pride if she doesn't give in. Finally, the use of "optimum time" plays on her emotions of how sweet the opportunity to make love to her would be. Marvell tells his mistress that the act would be almost animalistic and intense. Throughout the poem, he uses the phases of time in an attempt to frighten her into having sex with him. All three stanza's in the poem represent a different time frame. The first gives his mistress a feeling of unconditional love. He leads her to believe he would give all he has to her as long as tim .....

.... he is taken to jail and, while there, he loses his job. This, in a way, is very similar to what happened to AIM (American Indian Movement) some years back. The natives were upset about the Government's neglect of treaties and grants. The natives held a peaceful rally in a town, then they all packed up, and moved it to Wounded Knee.

.... "I didn't say you couldn't punish me," said Clevinger. "When?" asked the colonel. "When what, sir?" "Now you're asking me questions again." "I am sorry, sir. I'm afraid I don't understand your question."(79) Later in the interrogation, the colonel is so twisted in his conversation that he no longer wants to know when Clevinger said that he could not be punished. He now wants to know when Clevinger did not say that he could not be punished. Clevinger quickly rebuts and states, "I always didn't say you couldn't punish me, sir." Finally, the colonel is satisfied with tha .....

.... antagonist Old Man Fat. Chee's setting reflects his caring nature. He shows this by caring for the land he lives on like a father would do for his son. He shows that he cares for the land by thinking that "if he sang the proper songs, if he cared for the land faithfully, it would not forsake him now..."(82) Chee is trying to grow food and he thinks that if he cares for the land and respects it that the earth would in turn make the food grow well.
