Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Confessions; Hearts; Jewelry & Jewelers; Love; Passion
And she hath sent a ruby ring, thrice kiss'd,
Symbol of Love's deep and indwelling fire;
And she hath sent a girdle that she list
Might clasp him with the arms of her desire;
And scarcely could her tender soul subsist,
Against whose peace a-many thoughts conspire.
O Love, how fathomless are thy decrees!
How limitless thy vast estranging seas!
