[Written in a delicate hand on fine parchment.]
My heart is so captured that it never can rove, My senses enthralled and lost in your delight You are the every sound in my heart, every sigh This is the love I for you now recite
Oh, without you, my love, my muse, Your charms more than the gods divine Would you leave but a single kiss at my cup, I would have the sweetest of all wine
How can one without fault describe This, most sweet passion that pervade ev’ry part When I drink the sweet love from your eyes Pleasures most coy play round my fond heart
[Scrawled on the back] Hope this will do. -R
