Love Awakened

Thou hath awaken mine love!
Thou hast demanded of mine heart.
How then shall my love greet thee?
Shall I meet thee with a thousand 
kisses or in wildness of heart?
For I know nothing else but love most 
ardently.
A tenderness so wondrous
a love so sudden and sweet it hath taken
possession of me
For in his eyes I am bewitched body and soul

The thousand kisses sound good. Are they free?
