Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone. Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music. Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
This is my beloved and this is my friend. With this ring I thee wed and join my life with yours. This is my beloved and this is my friend. With this ring I thee wed and join my life with yours. By the authority vested in me by the State of Washington, I pronounce you husband and wife.
