I like Marvell too - see my reply to Ken's comment for the random way I was introduced to it! My English teacher told me that she thought I probably could do A-level, but that I'd hate every minute of it. I'm sure she was right when I was 16, but now I'd love to have the chance to study literature again. My PhD gives me some opportunity to study poetry (I'm writing on the Song of Songs) but not English poetry, obviously!
