First Line: Love, guillardun! This vision christ assign'd

Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Sin
'Love, Guillardun! this vision Christ assign'd
In token of mercy and of sin abjured;
Yet had my soul for evermore repined
Until of thee full pardon was procured.
Now on thy lips there breathes a placid wind,
Condoning that deep wrong thou hast endured.
O kiss me once, tho' but in spirit-wise,
Ere thou withdraw'st the heaven-light of thine eyes!'
