Between us twain lively and lusty to last soothfast.(Great Gods!) grant ye the boon that prove her promises loyal,Saying her say in truth spoken with spirit sincere;So be it lawful for us to protract through length of our life-tideMutual pact of our love, pledges of holy good will!
TO AUFILENA.Aufiléna! for aye good lasses are lauded as loyal:Price of themselves they accept when they intend to perform.All thou promised'st me in belying proves thee unfriendly,For never giving and oft taking is deed illy done.
