Dearest Dear Wife

Fairest fair to be as wife
Thy breathe though lips elixir kisses 
When a future can allow me true immortal life

Mine eyes transfix and I am lesser from thee free
From passion's spells and gazes slavery
A royal court prisoner to wanting matrimony

And I join the elements in bow to mine queen
Bestow the thrones, upon pedestals
Higher and higher do I esteem

And loss of love becomes, mine only fear
Also time, the marble pillars still 
When in grand thee do appear

And I dream of love passed the morrows
where a man and mind cannot undeviate
Sets straighter than Eros and his arrows

Piercing through the soul to heart
Binding two together in every... 
Moment eneath the moonlit darks

This nomad once, now a cease to wander
Outward towards raging storms 
But, in the eye is love of lover

And thus one called, my dearest dearest wife
Surely I must pay Venus, or then the piper 
But, under heaven what could cost such a higher price

It is my entire heart I hath given thee 
I look up to an angel from my bended knee
And through out the world an echo "Will thou marry me"
