My Love

Do you wonder that my lips are tipped with gold
My tongue of silver?


Tis my beloved heart,  enshrined,  of  blood  jewels  red
Which speaks of the flesh  whole  head  mannered,  bread 

En

Sapphires of peace and emeralds 'en pastures green
Marks the hours my beloved's diamonds gleam


He breathes forth a purely marvelous indelible sheen
And dew drop jewels from his fingers are seen


Most comely my heart be when it sees
His beating ruby,  blood- fast red

FOR ME
