THE SPOUSE TO THE BELOVED by WILLIAM BALDWIN

First Line: CHRIST, MY BELOVED, WHICH STILL DOTH FEED
Last Line: ACCORDING AS HIS WILL IS.
Subject(s): JESUS CHRIST;
Christ, my Beloved which still doth feed
Among the flowers, having delight
Among his faithful lilies,
Doth take great care for me indeed,
And I again with all my might
Will do what so his will is.
My Love in me and I in him,
Conjoined by love, will till abide
Among the faithful lilies
Till day do break, and truth do dim
All shadows dark and cause them slide,
According as his will is.
