In your thought wish me prosper, And I am fortifide against the power Of fate to seperate us; and when thou art Within the amorous circle of my armes, We will make lawes to love; teach him new motion Or chaine him with the cordage of his haire, Like a tame thing, to walke, and watch our pillow And be our pleasures Centinell.
