This chapter reads Marvell’s “The Garden” as a spiritual exercise, one concerned with dwelling in and loving the present. Considering “The Garden” alongside Stoic and Epicurean arguments, the chapter argues that the poem’s first four stanzas concern themselves with delimiting the present, and stanzas five through seven with dilating it in an experience of green love, of a liberating bondage in the garden’s present moment. In particular, stanzas five through seven fuse sequence with simultaneity, creating a poetic eternity in a way unlike both Stoics and Epicureans. Both seek to better live in the present by establishing a consistent and coherent, undivided sense of self, while Marvell creates a well-bounded, joyous present for an astoundingly inconsistent self: one uncommonly passive and yet uncommonly active, sensually embodied and yet hardly embodied at all, deeply withdrawn into himself and yet deeply embedded in the garden that he loves. Such opposed positions ought to, and do, occur successively in everyday life. Yet the poem’s speaker asserts that they occur at once, loving in the present as he lives in it: by being overwhelmed by, by overwhelming, and also by simply dwelling with, what he loves.

This introduction shows how The Form of Love joins conversations about whether and how literature in general and poetry in particular can think distinctively. Philosophers, critics, and poets often invoke familiar—and useful—contrasts to distinguish poetry from philosophy: the particular versus the abstract, pleasure versus explanation, form versus matter or truth. Such helpful, if contestable, considerations can remain rather general, and when they do engage concretely with how poems think distinctively, they tend not to give poems the slow regard needed to reveal the full amplitude of how poetic form enables novel conceptions of love. Endeavoring to give John Donne’s “Batter my heart” this kind of attention, the introduction risks what could look like a conservative focus on texts in hopes of revealing what is most radical about those texts. It also outlines a form of loving reading that might be uncritical or anti-critical (or at least postcritical), in hopes of showing how poetry thinks as other forms of thought cannot.
