Thy promise to me, I'll not hesitate

To call thee before God.

Unless thou deign'st

To cast thy looks on me the coming day,

I shall, all clad in vestments rich, make plaint

Unto the envoy of our God, the last

Of all the prophets. For thou said'st to me,

"I'll draw thee from the sea of thy despair."

I worship at thy sanctuary, sweet,

My beauty, with large eyes of darkest night.
