Answer:

This question is from "The Passionate Shepherd to His Love".

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the nymph finds some important flaws in the shepherd’s idyllic vision. First is that the shepherd has promised hr lovely gifts things like belt with coral and amber in it. The shepherd can not afford such things, Secondly, the good tidings and happiness that the shepherd promises for all times cannot be provided by the shepherd at all times except for summer and spring. Here, it is important that one of the nymph's conditions for being the shepherd's lover is that he will not lie to him. And by making all these false promises she knows that the shepherd is lying. Other conditions of the nymph to live with shepherd are eternal youth and summertime.
