Explanation: This excerpt from Marvell's famous poem is specifically referring to the ephemeral nature of life, since the speaker is saying that he is constantly hearing the chariot of time - which is fast since it has wings - hurrying near, and eternity is ahead of us waiting for all of us. This poem is, in fact, a call to seize the day (<em>carpe diem</em>) and enjoy the pleasures that life has to offer. The speaker is telling to his coy mistress that if time was unlimited they could wait before courting and loving each other, but it is not, so he is urging her to let him love her.

She is successful in arguing this point, as she provides strong evidence for her position.

The prefix /de/ can be added to a root to indicate that something is going down; /a/ can be added to show it is going up. For example, the words ascend and descend use these prefixes to show where something is going.
