O eyes that pierce into the purest heart!

O hands that hold the highest thoughts in thrall!

O wit that weighs the depth of all desert!

O sense that shews the secret sweet of all!

The heaven of heavens with heavenly power preserve thee,

Love but thyself, and give me leave to serve thee.

To serve, to live to look upon those eyes,

To look, to live to kiss that heavenly hand,

To sound that wit that doth amaze the mind,
