Poems: whoso list to hunt.
               The Scrutiny.

One may compare Whoso list to hunt to The Great Gatsby because both Sir Thomas Wyatt and Gatsby desire an unobtainable woman whom already belongs to someone else. 
'her fair neck around about...for Caesar's i am'
This comparison could also be argued differently, as Gatsby's desire is arguably purely romantic whereas Wyatt's is potentially out of purely lust. Within this poem, there is a use of an extended metaphor referring to the object of his affections as a female deer, insinuating that Wyatt see's this relation as a hunt, and arguably dehumanises the object of his affections. Whereas Gatsby arguably feels only true love for Daisy.

The Scrutiny although existing prior to Gatsby shares contextual similarities within regard to the perception of affairs. within the scrutiny our speaker refers to sleeping with other people quite passingly although be a tentative subject, which is often reflected within 'Gatsby' with regards to Tom's recent string of affairs which his wife is indeed aware of.
'why should you swear i am forsworn?'
The Scrutiny and Whoso list to hunt have different forms of desire featured. Within The Scrutiny, the narrator acts purely on physical desire whereas the narrator in Whoso list to hunt arguably has romantic feelings for the object of his affections. This could tie into The Great Gatsby as Tom arguably only partakes in affairs because of physical desire, whereas Gatsby acts upon desire motivated by love.

Compare how the authors of the two texts you have studied present constancy in relationships.

Introduction:

Contextually the idea of having affairs is something that differs throughout the poetry collection and 'The Great Gatsby'. It is mainly seen that the men will go off and have affairs despite being married suggesting that there is a significant lack of constancy in relationships.

However the fact that many of them either return to their marriage or in the case of Daisy and Tom, the fact that they do not split up suggests that they have a strong marriage and that there is constancy in relationship.

Point 1: Most people have affairs.

Tom is unfaithful to Daisy and it is expected that 'she might have the decency not to telephone him at dinner time. Don't you think?',

Poses a rhetorical question suggesting that it is something standard and expected within 1920's American upper class society.

It is seen as standard for men to have affairs during this time period, the moral issue occurs within the text when Daisy goes off and has an affair.

'Absent From thee.' The narrator has an issue with himself for having the affair but he cannot help himself and in the end always returns to his wife because of the pain that having an affair brings, 'that tears my fix'd heart from my love', whereas Tom has been having affairs throughout the entire time the two have been married mainly because he can be

Point 2: Gatsby is loyal to Daisy throughout.

Gatsby remains loyal to his love for Daisy throughout the entire novella which suggests that there is constancy in relationships, this is then symbolised by the green light,

The Green light is symbolic of the hope that he has for getting Daisy back but it also represents wealth and Daisy's fickle nature in regards to only actually wanting Gatsby when he has money. However she did originally love him in the beginning before she was married that suggests that she is not fickle in nature.

This is quite typical of 1920's America because the economy was experiencing a boom time and this meant that many were easily influenced by the idea of obtaining wealth due to the American dream being a popular ideal.

'At An Inn' The narrator appears to be in a relationship with somebody to the outside world but in reality they are not, 'veiled smiles bespoke their thought of what we were', the idea of 'veiled smiles' can be linked to Gatsby and the idea that he is hiding his past from everybody and how could he be loyal to somebody when he is not admitting to himself who he really is.

Can also link to the idea that Gatsby believes that they have been in a relationship with each other for over 5 years when in reality she has moved on and is arguably in love with Tom. 'going on for 5 years - and you didn't know.'
