After reading the poem “To My Dear and Loving Husband” by Anne Bradstreet, make a claim that either the husband is alive, dead, or unfaithful (only select 1). Provide evidence and analysis from the poem to support your claim.

"If ever two were one, then surely we.
If ever man were loved by wife, then thee.
If ever wife was happy in a man,
Compare with me, ye women, if you can.
I prize thy love more than whole mines of gold,
Or all the riches that the East doth hold.
My love is such that rivers cannot quench,
Nor ought but love from thee give recompense.
Thy love is such I can no way repay;
The heavens reward thee manifold, I pray.
Then while we live, in love let’s so persever,
That when we live no more, we may live ever."

We can say that the husband mentioned in the poem is alive.

How is this possible?

  • The speaker of the poem is referring to her husband.
  • The speaker uses the verbs in the present tense.
  • The speaker indicates that the love between her and her husband will endure as long as they are alive.

In the poem, the speaker extols the love she feels for her husband. This exaltation is shown with situations and feelings that the speaker feels in the present when she thinks about her husband and their relationship.

Furthermore, the speaker informs in the last two lines of the poem that her husband is alive, because she claims that the love between them will remain as long as they are alive, but when they have died, the sentiment will remain.
