WEDDING WORDS.
A jewel for my lady's ear,
A jewel for her finger fine,
A diamond for her bosom dear,
Her bosom that is mine.
A jewel for her finger fine,
A diamond for her bosom dear,
Her bosom that is mine.

Dear glances for my lady's eyes,
Dear looks around her form to twine,
Dear kisses for the lips I prize,
Her dear lips that are mine.
Dear looks around her form to twine,
Dear kisses for the lips I prize,
Her dear lips that are mine.
Dear breathings to her, soft and low,
Of how my lot she's made divine,
Dear silences my love that show
For her whose love is mine.
Of how my lot she's made divine,
Dear silences my love that show
For her whose love is mine.
Dear cares no cloud shall shade her way,
That gladness only on her shine,
That she be happy as the May
Whose lot is one with mine.
That gladness only on her shine,
That she be happy as the May
Whose lot is one with mine.
Dear wishes hovering round her life
And tending thoughts, and dreams divine,
To feed with perfect joy the wife
Whose happiness is mine.
And tending thoughts, and dreams divine,
To feed with perfect joy the wife
Whose happiness is mine.
