THE SKAITH OF GUILLARDUN: 61, by                    
First Line: I may not take you with me, heartes dear
Last Line: And seal'd him hers with one long deathless kiss.
Alternate Author Name(s): Cayzer, Charles
Subject(s): Absence; Knights & Knighthood; Love; Separation; Isolation


'I may not take you with me, heartes dear,
Because of the deep faith I owe the king;
But this I promise—ere another year
Pass on to fading leaf, it shall me bring
Back to those arms that all my world ensphere.
Against my coming, here I pledge my ring.'
For answer she her mute face raised to his,
And seal'd him hers with one long deathless kiss.
