What is it I carry within my arms?
Is it some unguided lame form of charms?
Yet do I not charm the mind so well?
And so too, to eyes I do torture sell
So for this then I am so called tempting
But the lady halts her loves attempting
She sees me all save but my tender heart
Which feels so much to rip the earth apart
A love so vast as the endless deep hole
Let us both jump into the human soul
And be immersed in total seclusion
And live the dive with no seen conclusion
    Loves not seen or heard from words but both
    To take the plunge takes such true lasting oath

The passion of this is clear and resonant.
