On all the tears the world hath shed in vain;

Shall they not satisfy thy craving heart?

I have enough of loss, enough of gain;

I have my Love, what more can I obtain?

Mine is the joy of her companionship

Whose healing lip is laid upon my lip—

This is enough for me!

I pray thee send not forth my naked soul

From its poor house to seek for Paradise;

Though heaven and earth before me God unroll,
