Book Excerpt: 
. . .Scorning pleasure and pain;

  Nevertheless my mouth
   Would rest like a bird an hour
  And find in your curls a nest
   And find in your breast a bower:

  Nevertheless my eyes
   Would lose themselves in your own,
  Rivers that seek the sea,
   Angels before the throne:

  Your heart is another's I know,
   Your honor is his alone.

  The feasts of a long drawn love,
