TRUE love is a pretious pleasure,Rich delight unvalu'd treasure,Two firme Heartes in one ♡ meeting,Grasping hand in hand ne'r fleeting,Wreathlike like a maze entwineingTwo faire mindes in one combineing;Foe to faithless vowes perfidiousTrue love is a knott religious,Dead to the sinnes yt flameing riseThrough beauties soule seduceing eyes,Deafe to gold enchaunting witches,Love for vertue not for riches;Such is true loves boundles measure.True love is a pretious pleasure.
