This poem is about a man who has been in love for three whole days. Suckling was known to be witty in his poems. He mocked love and what it did to people. In the poem, the speaker has loved a lady for 3 days, but most relationships haven't even begun in this amount of time (an example of Suckling's wittiness). The words 'molt' and 'wings' imply a comparison between time and a bird shedding it's feathers. Therefore time will pass and he will never find such a constant lover. The speaker seems to be intrigued with the woman's beauty and this is why he has remained faithful for so long. Had it not been for her face, love with him would have made no stays. He would have had multiple partners.
