I love thy body better than thy soul.I love thy beauty better than thy heart.
To me the part is dearer than the whole
Of all thou art.

For our lips naturally meet: but notOur natures, not our thoughts. Far, far from thine
My spirit wanders lone. Thy heart hath got
No key to mine.

And 'tis adultery I commit with thee:For to another woman I am wed;
Tho', save in dreams, her face I shall not see
Till I am dead.

We miss'd each other in the porch of Birth,And there took different ways: mine earthward set
And hers I know not whither. But on earth
We have never met.
