Thy mind, thy soul, and all thou art

| That naught beneath the heavens may move
| Yet say not wherefore: say not why
| Thou lowest since in these DO lie
| The seeds Of death to Love, but say
| Thou lowest and must love alwayl

| OF word or manner, form or face
| Should thy hearts worship thus be bought

Then shalt thou love me, sweet alwayi
