Mine to the core of the heart, my beauty
Mine, all mine, aud for love, not duty
Love given willingly, full and free,
Love for loves sake as mine to thee
Duty's slave that keeps the keys,
But Love, the master goes in and out
OF his goodly chambers with song and shout,
Just as be pease-just as he please.
Mine, from the dear heads crown, brown-goden
To the siken foot that's scarce beholden
Give to few friends hand or smile,
Like generous lady now and awhile,
But the sanctuary heart that none dare win,
Keep holiest of holiest evermore =
The crowd in the aisles may watchthe door,
The high-priest only enters in.
Mine, my own, without doubts or terrors,
With all thy goodnesses, all thy errors,
Unto me and to me alone revealed,
" A spring shut up fountain sealed"
Many may praise thee--praise niue as thine,
Many may love thee-I'll love them too
But thy heart of hearts. pure, faithful, and true
Must be mine, mine wholly, and only mine.
Mine God, thank Thee that Thou has given
Something all mine on this side heaven
Something as much myself to be
AS this my soul lift to Thee
Flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone,
Life of my life, whom Thou dost make
Two to the world for the worlds works sake
But each unto each, as in Thy sight one.
