But now I claim thy faith. Thou mayst believe,

Thou must believe. Indeed, indeed, Diana,

Thou mayst believe. Look’st thou to find love strong?

I have heavenly security:—devoted?

I have no self but thee:—patient? I plead

Three years of patience:—humble? I was content

To be thy servant:—wise? I knew thee better

Than thou thyself; I knew that thou must love:

Or is love tender?—See my childish tears

Crowd now to hear my sentence.
