Against forgetful poisons; That as they
Who Vespers late, and early Mattins say
Upon their beads, so on this linked score
In golden numbers I might reckon o'er
Your virtues and my debt, which does surmount
The trivial laws of popular account:
For that, within this emblematic knot,
20Your beauteous mind, and my own fate, is wrote.
The sparkling constellation which combines
The lock, is your dear self, whose worth outshines
