"To My Dear and Loving Husband" is a prime example of her adherence to Puritan beliefs. The poem exemplifies the Puritan belief that a wife should be steadfastly devoted to her husband and family. It also shows that right living through a righteous marriage was considered a key to salvation. She also utilizes a lot of images of nature in her poetry, which was something that the Puritans would have developed a relationship with through their simple lives.
