	[minstrels] The Passionate Shepherd to His Love -- Christopher Marlowe

		Some recent critics have argued that these tensions actually run deep within the poem, and that “The Passionate Shepherd” is far more than the tender, playful evocation of the pastoral mode which it may initially appear.

		This is an unusual love poem in two ways, in that it's a man rather than a woman being compared to a rose, and that "openness" is being applied here to a man rather than to a woman, obviously more in an emotional than physical sense.
