The idea
Time and its damage, love's constancy or failure, the poet's own writing, and the worth of the person addressed. A candidate who knows the recurring subjects reads faster, because the poem's likely direction is available from its first quatrain.
In practice
Time, love, writing, worth.
Where people slip
Knowing the subjects speeds the reading.
