For, in that hour with heaven above,

Your cheeks, your mouth received my love.

And when that deep, blest trance was o'er,

And we could clasp and kiss no more;

Love's dear confessions had been made,

And we no more could be afraid;

When Angels' pens had writ the vow

Which nothing can dissever now;

Our hearts return'd to Nature's face,

To planets, and the waters' race.
