I know my mind and I have made my choice;
Not from your temper does my doom depend;
Love or love me not, you have no voice
In this, that is my portion to the end.
Your presence your favours, the full part
That you could give, now can take away:
What lies between your beauty my heart
Not even you can trouble or betray.
me not—unto my inmost core
I do desire your upon my mouth;
They have not craved a cup water more
That bleach upon the deserts of the south;
Here might you bless me; what you cannot do
bow me down, that have been loved by you.
